§ SIR WILLIAM HARCOURT (Monmouthshire, W.)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he will lay upon the Table the Estimates of revenue and expenditure for the current year for the administration of the Transvaal and the Orange River Colonies, and also for Rhodesia.
§ MR. J. CHAMBERLAINThe Summary Estimates of the Transvaal and Orange River Colony will be included in the Papers which will shortly be laid before Parliament. The Rhodesia Estimates will also be laid in due course.
§ SIR WILLIAM HARCOURTWill they be laid separately or only as part of the Blue-book?
§ MR. J. CHAMBERLAINI have already promised to lay some Papers before Parliament, and the Summary Estimates will be included in the first batch. Rhodesia will come later.
§ MR. LOUGH (Islington, W.)Shall we get them before the Budget is introduced?
§ MR. J. CHAMBERLAINI cannot say.
