HC Deb 06 March 1906 vol 153 c287
MR. CONOR O'KELLY (Mayo, N.)

I beg to ask the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether before making any changes in the government of the Transvaal, it is intended to make inquiries into the annexation to Natal of Vryheid, Utrecht, and Wakkerstroom.

* THE UNDER-SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE COLONIES (Mr. CHURCHILL,) Manchester, N.W.

His Majesty's Government cannot undertake to revoke the solemn and deliberate act of policy by which these districts were under the late Government annexed to Natal.
