HC Deb 18 March 1872 vol 210 c118
MR. GILPIN

asked the Under Secretary of State for the Colonies, Whether the Laws of the Cape Colony in respect to the landing of Natives from any district beyond the limits of the English Colony are in force also in the Colony of Natal?

MR. KNATCHBULL-HUGESSEN

, in reply, said, that the Cape Colony and the Colony of Natal were not under the same law with respect to the importation of natives. He could not, within the limit of an answer, give the detailed differences between the laws of the two; but he would show the hon. Gentleman, if he would call at the Colonial Office, the law with respect to both, and then his hon. Friend might form an opinion as to the desirability of pursuing the subject further.
