HC Deb 20 June 1922 vol 155 c1005
1. Colonel WEDGWOOD

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India how many agitators, political or otherwise, are imprisoned on account of their agitation in Burma; how many of these are Burmese; and how many Indian?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for INDIA (Earl Winterton)

I am unable to supply the hon. and gallant Member with the figures asked for, and would refer to the reply given him on the 22nd February last. But I have no reason to think that the number is more than six or seven, if so many. The Government of India were consulted, as promised in that reply, but their answer has not yet been received.
