§ 4. Mr. Sorensenasked the Under-Secretary of State for India why the Government of India has refused to implement sanctions granted by the Secretary of State for India in 1920 for certain allowances and privileges enjoyed by clerks employed in the civil secretariats of the Government of India to be also enjoyed by the clerical service at Army headquarters?
§ Mr. ButlerIf the hon. Member will give me details of the allowances and privileges to which he refers I shall be glad to look into the matter.
§ Mr. SorensenMay I take it that the hon. Gentleman will, in fact, investigate grievances, which, I assure him, are felt very strongly by this clerical class in India?
§ Mr. ButlerIf the hon. Gentleman will give me particulars of the exact grievances he has in mind, I will do so. The only grievance that I can connect with the matter is one entertained by the ex-military class which was civilianised in 1920, and which was remedied in 1928.
