§ MR. F. S. STEVENSON (Suffolk, Eye)asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether it is the fact that there have been disputes between English and German settlers as to the ownership of property about Taveta; and, whether any steps will be taken to define the boundaries of the two spheres of influence with greater precision than was done by the Zanzibar Delimitation Commission and the London Conference?
§ THE UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE (Sir JAMES FERGUSSON) (Manchester, N. E.)Her Majesty's Government have received no information as to any such disputes. In fact, neither side of the frontier in the neighbourhood of Taveta is as yet occupied by permanent settlers. Nothing has arisen to show that any further steps are required at present for the definition of the boundary, us to which the two Governments are perfectly agreed.
