HC Deb 16 December 1943 vol 395 c1663
Mr. Speaker

Mr. Sorensen.

The Secretary of State for India (Mr. Amery)

I hope, before answering Question No. 16, I might be allowed to say one word to express the regret which we all feel at the premature death of Sir John Herbert, once a well loved Member of this House, and since a popular and esteemed Governor of the great Province of Bengal. There can be little doubt that his unwearying devotion to duty contributed to the breakdown which ended in his death.

Hon Members

Hear, hear.
