HC Deb 18 April 1932 vol 264 cc1257-8W
Sir R. CRADDOCK

asked the Secretary of State for India whether the Govern- ment of Bombay has yet succeeded in restoring trade, industry, and security in Bombay City; and, if not, whether the Government will consider taking over the regulation of the exchanges and markets, as was done in the War, with a view to countering the intimidation exercised over their institutions by supporters of the Congress boycott?

Sir S. HOARE

I am satisfied that the Government of Bombay is doing everything in its power to restore normality in trading and industry in Bombay, and I have every confidence in its capacity to deal with the situation.
