MR. JOHN ELLIS (Nottinghamshire, Rushcliffe)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the Government have now decided to bring Lord Milner's tenure of office, as High Commissioner in South Africa, to a close; and, in that case, what date is it proposed to terminate it.

Neither now nor at any time have His Majesty's Government decided or wished to bring Lord Milner's tenure of office in South Africa to a close.
