7. Mr. D. GREENALL

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India what action has been taken by the Government of Bengal with regard to the Resolution adopted by the Bengal Legislative Council early in the year asking for the appointment of a committee by the Government of India to inquire into the causes of unemployment among seamen in Bengal?

The Government of Bengal have not taken action on the Resolution referred to, as the question of recruitment of seamen is one for the Central Government. It is under the consideration of the Government, of India.
