HC Deb 11 June 1912 vol 39 c676
12. Sir J. D. REES

asked whether the Secretary of State for India had received a resolution from the General Council of the Institute of Journalists supporting the protest by the Calcutta committee of the institute with regard to Lord Crewe's recent reference in the House of Lords in regard to the English newspapers of Calcutta and the Indian Press Act?

Mr. MONTAGU

The answer is in the affirmative. The reply which the Secretary of State caused to be sent to the Institute of Journalists appeared in the Press on the 25th May.

Sir J. D. REES

Does that close the incident?

Mr. MONTAGU

As far as I am aware, that closes the incident.
