Proceedings of the Legislative Council of the United Provinces. Friday 22 November 1935. Official Report

1935

Some time ago it was considered that by the establishment of the Special Committee for the management of the Court of Wards one of the two posts of the Members of the Board of Revenue will be reduced but the Government have not seen their way to do so. [...] I have briefly mentioned the needs of the Province and at the same time have also looked at the forecast which has been prepared by the Finance Department and come to the conclusion that the forecast of the Finance Department cannot come to be true. [...] I hope Sir that from a perusal of the causes given in the memorandum --the causes which have led the province to the deficit Sir Otto will be convinced that the deficit has nor arisen on account of any extravagance on the part of the Government or any unwillingness on the part of this House to tax the people in a manner which was suitable for the occasion. [...] Taking into consideation all the possible sources which can be thought of when we are up against the question of improving the entire financial position of the province—the question of retrenchment the question of taxation and the question of increasing the revenue taking all these prob]épas together—we find that the lai..est source of our revenue is not likeiy to improve in the near future. [...] One of them is that I would request the Hon'ble the Finance Member either so to modify his own representation or memorandum to Sir Otto as to bring out the salient points that have been raised in the course of this debate or to append to the memorandum a sort of a summary of the points that have been raised in the course of this debate.
