HC Deb 03 April 1905 vol 144 c147
MR. LABOUCHERE (Northampton)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether any negotiations were going on before 1902 between the Colonial Ministers and His Majesty's then Government of which the House is not as yet cognisant; what, if so, were these negotiations; and whether he will lay upon the Table of the House any communications that passed in connection with them.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

was understood to decline to answer the Question.
