HC Deb 21 July 1927 vol 209 c576
70. Mr. KELLY

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether he is aware that the Government of India have purchased a factory at Jamshedpur for the manufacture of under-frames in connection with the railway works; and whether he can state the annual saving on purchases in the United Kingdom and in Calcutta as a result, and the annual estimated saving to the Government of India?

Earl WINTERTON

The works at Jamshedpur recently taken over by the Secretary of State are intended to be used for the manufacture of carriage under-frames, but I am unable to give any estimate of the financial results.
