HC Deb 27 April 1903 vol 121 cc464-5
MR. MALCOLM (Suffolk, Stowmarket)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he will agree to give the Return respecting East Africa, etc. (Concessions), notice for which stands on to-day's Paper.

Appended is the Return referred to:—

East Africa, etc. (Concessions)—Address for Return showing the names of the firms or individuals to whom Concessions have been granted in East Africa and Uganda; the exact nature and terms of those Concessions; the prices paid for the same; and the exact localities and areas of their operation.

THE UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Lord CRANBORNE, Rochester)

A Return of the concessions granted by His Majesty's Government in the East Africa and Uganda Protectorates is being prepared and will shortly be laid, together with some of the details for which my hon. friend asks. If he should require anything further perhaps he will communicate with me.
