HC Deb 25 July 1905 vol 150 cc185-6
MR. O'DOWD (Sligo, S.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for India whether, under the system of Press censorship established in India, the names of all newspaper correspondents are registered with the object of punishing any correspondent transmitting to this country any item of news which might be considered as unfavourable to the Government of that country.

MR. BRODRICK

I have nothing to add to the Answer which I gave to the hon. Member's Question on this subject on the 11th inst† If the hon. Member can give me any reliable information that such a system is in force I will make inquiry.

MR. SWIFT MACNEILL (Donegal, S.)

Why not telegraph to Lord Curzon?
