HC Deb 23 November 1909 vol 13 c14
Mr. REES

asked whether the Government of India had taken any action on the memorandum received from the Bombay Chamber of Commerce concerning the adoption by natives of India of the names of natives of Europe for trade purposes?

The MASTER of ELIBANK

The Bombay Chamber of Commerce has addressed the Government of Bombay, not the Government of India, on the subject. So far as I am aware, the Government of Bombay have come to no conclusions regarding it. I understand that it is engaging the attention of other chambers and associations, European and Indian, who are equally interested.
