HC Deb 14 July 1920 vol 131 c2357
62. Mr. HOWARD GRITTEN

asked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the fact that the only day assigned to the Indian Estimates was entirely devoted to the discussion of the Amritsar episode, he will arrange for another day to be given, as soon as possible, for the purpose of discussing Indian administration in general and the policy of the Secretary of State for India in particular?

Mr. BONAR LAW
