HC Deb 08 November 1906 vol 164 cc723-4
MR. CHIOZZA MONEY (Paddington, N.)

To ask the Secretary of State for India if he can see his way to make arrangements by which Indian candidates for the Indian Civil Service can be examined by the local universities or otherwise in India, so that they may not be put to expense and involved in caste disabilities by coming to England for the purpose of examination.

(Answered by Mr. Secretary Morley.) This question formed the subject of an exhaustive inquiry by the Government of India and the Secretary of State in 1893 and 1894, and the correspondence was presented to Parliament in Cd. Paper, † See (4) Debates, elxiii., 1092. No. 7378 of 1894. I am not aware of any new circumstances that would justify a departure from the decision then arrived at.
