HC Deb 28 January 1930 vol 234 c886W
Major POLE

asked the Secretary of State for India to what extent freedom of association obtains in the Indian territories under ruling princes; and whether, since the enactment in British India of the Indian Trade Union Act, similar legislation has been adopted in any of these Indian States?

Mr. BENN

I will ask the Government of India for any available information as to the present position in regard to legislation in the Indian States affecting trade unions.
