HC Deb 23 February 1921 vol 138 c955W
Sir W. DAVISON

asked the Secretary of State for India whether he has received the memorials of Indian (Imperial) Police which were addressed to the Viceroy, and prayed for the redress of grievances, particularly in the matter of pay; whether he has also received reports from the local governments thereon, with the recommendations of the Government of India; and when such reports were received and what action has been taken in the matter?

Mr. MONTAGU

I received on 18th January a set of the memorials to which I understand my hon. Friend to refer, and on 25th January reports from most of the local governments thereon. I have not yet received the recommendations of the Government of India, but they are expected very shortly, and as soon as they reach the India Office will receive my careful consideration in Council.
