HC Deb 04 August 1947 vol 441 c123W
Mr. Vane

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India why the Indian Ordnance Service has not been included in the list of services detailed in Command Paper 7116; and whether he will ensure that the due interests of members of this service will not be overlooked during forthcoming negotiations.

Mr. A. Henderson

The Indian Ordnance Service was not included in the list of services detailed in Command Paper 7116, because it is not one of the Secretary of State's services. The due interests of European members of this service will not be overlooked during the forthcoming negotiations.
