HC Deb 08 May 1890 vol 344 cc454-5
MR. HANBURY

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what information, if any, has reached the Foreign Office as to a Proclamation which the British East African Company is reported to have issued on 3rd May, refusing to recognise slavery within the sphere of that Company's influence?

* SIR J. FERGUSSON

Her Majesty's Government have received as yet no information on this point.
