HC Deb 22 February 1904 vol 130 c560
* MR. JOHN ELLIS

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he will lay a Return upon the Table, giving the names, ages, salaries, and previous careers and experience of the persons who have been appointed to the position of magistrate in the Transvaal; who is responsible for such appointments, and are any qualifications required from applicants for the post; and, in that case, what are they.

* MR. LYTTELTON

I will obtain the information required from the Governor by whom the appointments are made and will lay it.

* MR. JOHN ELLIS

Can the right hon. Gentleman give the House any idea when the information will be ready?

* MR. LYTTELTON

I am afraid not.
