HC Deb 05 May 1930 vol 238 c604
14. Major POLE

asked the Secretary of State for India if he will state the total annual contribution made by the Central Government in India towards the upkeep of the leper institutions in India?

Mr. BENN

So far as I am aware no such contribution is made from central revenues. As public health is a transferred provincial subject, the matter is one for Provincial Governments whose position I stated on the 14th of last month.
