§ 15. Sir W. Wakefieldasked the Secretary of State for India how many people there are employed at the India Office in a secretarial, administrative or clerical capacity; and, of this number, how many have been to India.
§ Sir W. WakefieldWill my right hon. Friend consider giving as soon as possible opportunities of experience in India to more people in the India Office, and at the same time will he bring to the India Office more people with experience of administration in India, so that there will be a better knowledge in the India Office of practical affairs in India?
§ Mr. AmeryI will certainly keep that point of view in mind, but, of course, in war conditions it may not be easy to give effect to it.
