HC Deb 30 May 1911 vol 26 c1038W
Mr. LLOYD

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether he has any information on the present general condition of the military detention barracks in India; and, if not, will he procure the same?

Mr. MONTAGU

The Secretary of State has no recent information on the subject. He will inquire.

Mr. LLOYD

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether he will state the number of military detention barracks in India, and state where these are; and whether he is completely satisfied with their condition?

Mr. MONTAGU

There are military detention barracks at nine places in India—namely, Poona, Aden, Dagshai, Hyderabad (Sind), Lucknow, Peshawur, Quetta, Trimulgherry, and Thayetmyo. The Secretary of State has no recent reports as to their condition, and has no reason to suppose that it is otherwise than satisfactory.
