§ Mr. MACKINDERasked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether it is proposed to give effect to the recommendation of the Mercantile Marine Committee that a training ship, on the lines of the "Worcester" or the "Conway," should be established at Bombay to train young Indians to become sea officers?
§ Earl WINTERTONThis question is being carefully considered by the Government of India. In July last they invited the Superintendent of the "Worcester" to visit India for the purpose of advising them and drawing up a detailed scheme. He was unable to go until December, but has now presented a report which is under consideration.
