HC Deb 25 April 1895 vol 32 c1624
SIR GEORGE BADEN-POWELL (Liverpool, Kirkdale)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he can now state what arrangements have been made for a full inquiry into the late difficulties on the Brass River; and what is the tenour of the instructions given to the Commissioner charged with the inquiry?

SIR E. GREY

Sir John Kirk has been appointed Commissioner, and will proceed to Brass by the steamer of the 11th of May. His instructions will embrace an inquiry into all the circumstances connected with the recent outbreak, the redress of grievances, and the maintenance of order in the two Protectorates.
