HC Deb 02 March 1921 vol 138 c1773
12. Sir J. D. REES

asked the Secretary of State for India whether he is in a position to give the House any information regarding action taken, or to be taken, upon the Esher Report?

Mr. MONTAGU

I am not yet in a position to announce any conclusions on the recommendations of the Esher Committee, except on certain proposals in Part V., regarding which I hope to make an announcement shortly, as I stated in reply to my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for Melton on the 23rd February.

Sir J. D. REES

Is the position altered by the resolution passed in the Legislative Assembly of India as regards the Esher Report? Does that resolution alter the position as regards the action to be taken upon it?

Mr. MONTAGU

I am not sure to which resolution my hon. Friend refers.
