HC Deb 01 February 1897 vol 45 c924
MR. J. F. HOGAN (Tipperary, Mid)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether, in the event of a majority of the Premiers of the self-governing colonies finding themselves in a position to accept his invitation to participate in the celebration of the 60th year of Her Majesty's reign, advantage will be taken of their presence in England to hold an Imperial Conference with a view to the discussion and determination of contemporary questions of common colonial concern, and the completion of the work entered upon by the Colonial Conferences of London in 1887 and Ottawa in 1894?

MR. J. CHAMBERLAIN

The matter referred to in the Question of the hon. Member will be taken into consideration.
