On June 27, 1934 according to the London Times of June 28, 1934 Sir Samuel Hoare, Secretary of State for India, announced in the House of Commons in reference to the Indian problem that the government was now convinced that "the settlement of the urgent and important questions that still remain to be decided will only be delayed by formal sessions of large bodies such as the Round Table Conference or of such committees as the Federal Structure Committee. Instead, for the sake of speed and the financial safeguards, the government proposed, he said, to have a joint select committee of both houses of Parliament consult informally in London with "a few individuals whose personal experience qualifies them to speak with authority."
