§ 43. Mr. T. Williamsasked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether he has any statement to make regarding the position of affairs in India?
§ The Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster (Earl Winterton)I have been asked to reply; and perhaps it might be to the general convenience of the House if I stated that during the temporary absence of the Under-Secretary I shall be representing the Secretary of State and the India Office in this House. No, Sir; there is no general statement I could appropriately make within the limits of a Parliamentary answer.
