MR. CATHCART WASONI beg to ask the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he will lay upon the Table of the House all reports from local officers on the question of land concession and native reserves in East Africa.
§ EARL PERCYThe opinions and suggestions of local officers in regard to questions of land concession and native reserves formed the basis of the Crown Lands Ordinance, 1902, and of the various rules and notices which have been issued in connection therewith. These regulations have all been published, and His Majesty's Government do not propose to lay any Papers on the subject.
