HL Deb 31 March 1925 vol 60 cc855-6
THE EARL OF CLARENDON

My Lords, on behalf of my noble friend, the Earl of Birkenhead, I beg to move the Motion standing on the Paper in his name. There is only one correction, which I would like to point out. The name of Lord Newton appears among the names to be elected on the Committee. That is a mistake, and the name of Lord Meston should be included instead.

Moved, That the following Lords be appointed to serve on the Standing Joint Committee on Indian Affairs, and that the Committee have power to agree with the Commons upon the appointment of a Chairman:—

—(The Earl of Birkenhead.)

On Question, Motion agreed to.

Ordered, That a Message be sent to the Commons to acquaint them therewith, and to request them to appoint eleven members of that House to be joined with the said Committee.
