HC Deb 25 June 1901 vol 95 c1391
MR. CHAINING (Northamptonshire, E.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he is aware that British owners of farms in Natal are still being prohibited from re-stocking and re-letting their farms, on the ground of the proximity of the enemy; and whether he will consider the possibility of removing these restrictions.

The SECRETARY of STATE FOR THE COLONIES (Mr. J. CHAMBERLAIN, Birmingham, W.)

I have no information on this matter, which is one for the consideration of the Natal Government.
