HC Deb 16 February 1904 vol 129 c1490
MR. JOHN ELLIS (Nottinghamshire Rushcliffe)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the House is now in possession of all the various protests from public authorities, departments, and associations in South Africa respecting the introduction of Chinese labour which have been received by his Department; and, if not, will he place those not yet communicated before the House.

* THE SECRETARY or STATE FOR THE COLONIES (Mr. LYTTELTON,) Warwick and Leamington

A few adverse resolutions from the Cape and one from Lydenburg in the Transvaal have reached me since Cd. 1895 was published, but they were not in time to be added to the further Papers which were circulated yesterday.

MR. JOHN ELLIS

was understood to ask what bodies sent in the adverse resolutions.

[The reply was inaudible]
