25. Mr. T. WILLIAMS

asked the Secretary of State for India whether he can inform the House on what grounds and under what regulations the provincial governors and members of council attending the meetings of the Joint Parliamentary Committee on Indian Reform have been given leave of absence from India?

Mr. BUTLER

No members of Council are attending the meetings of the Joint Select Committee. The Governor of the United Provinces has been called into consultation by His Majesty's Government in connection with the Committee's inquiry, and resigned his office for the purpose.
