HC Deb 16 June 1920 vol 130 c1226
2. Commander Viscount CURZON

asked the Secretary of State for India whether he can make any statement as to the number of British candidates for commissions in the Indian Army, comparing, if possible, the figures for January, 1914, with January, 1920; and if he is satisfied with the position?

Mr. MONTAGU

The Noble Lord raises a question of the highest importance on which I am anxious to give him the fullest information. I am therefore preparing a statement, which I trust will be complete in a few days, and with his permission I will communicate with him again as soon as it is complete.
