HC Deb 06 March 1911 vol 22 cc989-90W
Mr. KING

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether he is aware that the agents recruiting coolies for the Crown Colonies are paid a commission per head upon the coolies they persuade to sign indentures; and whether, in view of the-abuses to which such practices must lead, His Majesty's Government will prohibit it?

Mr. MONTAGU

The question is engaging the attention of His Majesty's Government.
