HC Deb 07 February 1884 vol 284 cc183-4
CAPTAIN PRICE

asked the Under Secretary of State for the Colonies, Whether any, and what, change has been made in the form of Government in Jamaica; and, whether Papers will be laid upon the Table showing the proposed alteration, the protest sent by a deputation of Colonists to Sir H. Nor- man, and His Excellency's reply thereto; and, if he will cause the Report of the Jamaica Commission to be printed and circulated?

MR. EVELYN ASHLEY,

in reply, said, the Papers which were laid on the Table of the House on Tuesday gave all the information required. This matter was not a very simple one, and as the Papers would be in the hands of Members in a short time, he must refer the hon. and gallant Member to them.

CAPTION PRICE

said, no answer had been given to the second portion of his Question, as to whether the protests sent by a deputation of Colonists to Sir Henry Norman and the reply thereto were included?

MR. EVELYN ASHLEY

Yes, Sir; they are.
