asked whether the, Committee presided over by Lord Nicholson has yet presented its Report?

The Secretary of State has no official information on the subject, but he understands that a Report has been submitted to the Government of India, by whom the Committee was appointed, and by whom any recommendations will in the first instance be dealt with.

Will the hon. Member bear in mind the desire on the part of many Members in this House to discuss the Report before any of the recommendations made are carried into effect?

I will bear it in mind, but I do not think that there is any probability of the Report being published at all.
