§ Mr. JOHNasked the Secretary of State for India the figures of population classified according to occupation returned in the Indian census taken early in the present year; and when the complete census returns are expected to be available?
§ Sir S. HOAREThe figures for occupations are not yet available. I have not heard when the Government of India expect the complete report to be published, but they expect to supply me in about a year's time with a summary of it similar to the summary of the 1921 Census that was presented to Parliament. This will include statistics of occupations.
