Simon Commission (1927–30) A commission established by
Baldwin to inquire into political conditions in British India. It consisted of seven members, and was chaired jointly by John
Simon and Clement
Attlee. It met a hostile reception in India, and was boycotted there because it had no Indian members. It recommended giving greater autonomy to Indian provincial governments, but maintaining a veto for the viceroy. It also rejected parliamentary government for India as a whole. The report was discussed at the
Round Table Conferences, and it had some influence on the 1935
Government of India Act.
