§ MR. DALZIEL (Kirkcaldy Burghs)To ask the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether, having regard to his statement that there are grave objections to the procedure which was followed in regard to the Ceylon Pearl Fisheries Concession, and to his further statement that the results have not been at all satisfactory, the Government will consider the advisability in the public interest of reopening the whole matter.
(Answered by Mr. Churchill.) No, Sir; the transaction must be regarded as complete.
