HC Deb 31 March 1927 vol 204 c1434
99. Mr. LANSBURY

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether he can now state the terms on which the recent strike on the Bengal-Nagpur Railway at Khargpur has been settled; and whether it is proposed to hold a public inquiry into this matter?

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

I have no information beyond that given in my reply to the hon. Member on the 21st instant. So far as I am aware it is not proposed to hold a public inquiry into the matter.

Mr. LANSBURY

Can the Noble Lord give the terms of settlement of this strike?

Earl WINTERTON

I gave the terms to the hon. Member on the 21st of March, 1927. I will read them out again if he thinks it is necessary, but I consider it is unnecessary.
