35. Captain FULLER

asked the Secretary of State for India if he has any information concerning the recent production of cheap power spirit from the water hyacinth in India; and if the Government of India are interesting themselves in the matter?

Sir VICTOR WARRENDER (Vice-Chamberlain of the Household)

I have been asked to reply. My Tight hon. Friend has seen Press reports on the subject, but has not received any information from the Government of India.

Captain FULLER

Can some inquiry be made in regard to this important matter?

Sir V. WARRENDER

I will see whether inquiry can be made.
