HC Deb 01 August 1930 vol 242 c887
6. Mr. DAY

asked the Secretary of State for India whether he has any further information that he can give the House as to the position in India?

The SECRETARY of STATE for INDIA (Mr. Wedgwood Benn)

I circulated on Monday last a statement of the Government of India's appreciation of the situation up to 26th July. I do not expect to receive from them another appreciation of the position until Monday next.

Mr. DAY

Will any official statement be made during the Recess on the position?

Mr. BENN

Yes, I should see no harm in, but an advantage in, circulating to the Press the appreciation to which I have referred.
