HC Deb 14 June 1928 vol 218 cc1181-2
79. Mr. WELLOCK

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India the total amount of money allocated by the central and provincial governments of India for the education of Indians and Europeans, respectively, and the amount this averages per head of the total Indian and European population, respectively?

Earl WINTERTON

Education is a provincial and in large part a Trans- ferred subject. My Noble Friend does not, therefore, receive annually such detailed statistics as those asked for, and the latest at present available relate to 1921–22, when the last Quinquennial Report IA as prepared. When the Report for 1927 is received I will inform the hon. Member.
