HC Deb 02 June 1924 vol 174 c846
2. Mr. BAKER

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether, seeing that the Bombay Government appointed. a Technical and Industrial Education Committee in March, 1921, that a Report was presented by the Committee after a year's labours, and that, although the scheme proposed had a most favourable Press, no action has been taken upon it, he will, in view of the importance of developing technical, industrial and commercial education, consider the possibility of adopting the proposals of the Committee?

Mr. RICHARDS

Education being a subject which has been transferred to the control of local governments in India, it is for the Government of Bombay, by whom the Committee in question was appointed, to decide what action, if any, should be taken upon its proposals.
