MR. HERBERT ROBERTSTo ask the Postmaster General, as representing the Secretary of State for the Colonies, whether he can lay upon the Table any Papers giving a description of Lord Milner's new scheme of land settlement for the Transvaal and Orange River Colonies.
(Answered by Mr. Austen Chamberlain, for the Secretary of state for the Colonies.) The greater part of the information available on this subject has been published in the Blue-book [Cd. 1163], and Lord Milner's plans have not sufficiently matured since the date of that publication to render it desirable to lay further Papers.
