HC Deb 23 September 1948 vol 456 c159W
124. Sir P. Hannon

asked the President of the Board of Trade to what extent the various schemes for economic development in Hyderabad which comprised pending contracts with British firms for engineering and railway expansion have been suspended; and if the losses sustained by British firms in the preparation of such schemes will be awarded compensation by His Majesty's Government.

Mr. Bottomley

I have not been informed of the suspension of any such schemes. The second part of the Question does not therefore arise.
