Henry Dundas, in the House of Commons, February 25, 1793, on Stating the Affairs of the East India Company It is now six years since I introduced the practice of bringing annually before a committee of the House of Commons, a statement of the situation of affairs in the provinces of India; a measure which has tended to establish a regularity in their accounts, to enforce an accuracy in their estimates, and, by subjecting the several civil and military establishments to a jealous investigation, has answered my most sanguine expectations, and been productive of all those salutary effects, which must ever attend publicity in matters of account and revenue. The statement I now propose to lay before you is different in its object, and must, of course, be different in its nature, from those I have hitherto troubled you with.
