HC Deb 18 February 1895 vol 30 c965
*SIR C. DILKE (Gloucester, Forest of Dean)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, whether there have been established within the Protectorate of Zanzibar both the International Bureau named in Article 27 of the Brussels Act, and also any of the offices and institutions named in Article 86; and, whether the office expenses of the office at Zanzibar are being shared by all the signatory Powers, and recovered through the agency of the Department of the Foreign Office at Brussels, as provided by Article 85?

*SIR E. GREY

The International Bureau has been established and is in full operation. The only place in the Zanzibar Protectorate where an office did not already exist was Pemba, and a post is now being established there. The answer to the last paragraph is in the affirmative.
