HC Deb 20 July 1931 vol 255 c1075W
Major POLE

asked the Secretary of State for India whether, in view of the undesirability of delaying action on those recommendations of the Royal Commission on Labour in India which, although they might involve legislation, would not entail much expenditure from either central or provincial revenues, he will consider the possibility of requesting the Government of India to submit separately their views on these recommendations so as to enable immediate action being taken thereon?

Mr. BENN

This matter is one in which the initiative is best left to the Government of India, but I will transmit to them the hon. and gallant Member's question and this reply.
