§ 6. Mr. BENNETTasked the Secretary of State for India whether, in view of the fact that a High Court was established in the Punjab in April last, a High Court will now be established in Burma 1764 in fulfilment of decisions of the Government of India and in accordance with the expressed views of the local Government, the judges of the chief Court of Lower Burma; the Bar of Rangoon, and the Rangoon Chamber of Commerce?
§ Mr. MONTAGUI have received no proposals from the Government of India on this question. When it was last discussed the local Government opposed the conversion of the Chief Court into a High Court, and I am not aware that the present Lieut.-Governor has made any official recommendation.
