HC Deb 22 February 1906 vol 152 c503
MR. SCHWANN

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for India whether he will make representations to the Government of India with the view to the institution of adequate facilities for the education of the children of coolies employed in the agricultural districts of India, in tea gardens, cotton plantations, etc., in Assam, Madras, the Central Provinces, and Bengal.

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR INDIA (Mr. JOHN MORLEY,) Montrose Burghs

As was stated by my predecessor, in reply to Questions asked by my hon. friend last session, this question is already engaging the attention of the Government of India, and I do not consider it necessary at present to make any representation to that Government in regard to it.
