HC Deb 12 March 1885 vol 295 c853
MR. BOURKE

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether the Government will lay upon the Table Papers relating to the succession to the Sovereignity of Zanzibar?

LORD EDMOND FITZMAURICE

The subject of the succession has not been discussed by Her Majesty's Government. There are consequently no Papers to be laid.

MR. BOURKE

Are there any Papers upon the subject which have come into the possession of the Government since they came into Office?

LORD EDMOND FITZMAURICE

I am not aware of any, but I will inquire.
