HC Deb 07 April 1913 vol 51 cc821-2W
Sir J. D. REES

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether the Reports of the local governments on the Factory Act are summarised or reviewed by the Government of India; and whether any such review or summary is available for the use of Members, who have otherwise to be at the pains of perusing a bulky file of reports and statistics?

Mr. MONTAGU

I shall be happy to place in the Library the Government of India's dispatch giving cover to the provincial reports, and briefly reviewing them. As regards the statistics the hon. Member may not have noticed that they are summarised in a statement that will be found at the end of the set of reports already placed in the Library.
