I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he will cause the immediate publication of correspondence relating to an agreement between the Government of British New Guinea and the British New Guinea Syndicate, in continuation of Blue Book 8935, July 1898; and whether such correspondence will include the full text of the Report, dated 4th October 1898, made by Sir William MacGregor, late Lieutenant Governor of British New Guinea, to the Governor of Queensland?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE COLONIES

The correspondence will be published when it is complete, including Sir William MacGregor's Report.
