HC Deb 05 May 1930 vol 238 c641W
Mr. FREEMAN

asked the Secretary of State for India whether it is proposed to revive the competitive examinations for admission to the Indian medical service; and, if so, whether he will consider the desirability of ordering these examinations to be held in India only?

Mr. BENN

I am sending my hon. Friend a copy of the report of a debate on this subject in the Indian Legislative Assembly on the 28th January last, in which the present position is explained. It will be seen that the Government of India propose to review the situation and send me their considered views, which I am expecting shortly.
