HC Deb 21 November 1927 vol 210 c1385
5. Mr. PALING

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether he is aware that, in connection with the retrenchment scheme on the Bengal Nagpur railway at Kharagpur, a notice was issued by the manager of the workshops that those who did not take part in the last strike in the early months of this year should not be included in the retrenchment scheme: and whether this statement had the approval of the railway board and of the Government of India?

Earl WINTERTON

My Noble Friend is aware that such a notice was issued by the acting manager of the workshops, but this order was immediately cancelled by the agent, and the officer who on his own responsibility had issued it is no longer in the service of the company.
