HC Deb 07 July 1913 vol 55 c55W
Mr. FLEMING

asked the Under-Secretary for India if he can state the expenditure made by the Imperial Government or the Indian, whether by direct Grant, loan, or guarantee, on the protection of low-lying lands in India against river floods?

Mr. MONTAGU

The accounts as furnished by the Indian Government to the Secretary of State do not contain the information desired by the hon. Member. The Government of India will be asked whether materials exist for exhibiting it in a fairly complete form.

Mr. FLEMING

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, if he can state the expenditure made by the Imperial or the Egyptian Government, whether by direct Grant, loan, or guarantee, on the protection of low-lying lands in Egypt or the Soudan against river floods?
