HC Deb 28 March 1906 vol 154 cc1290-1
MR. GIBBS (Bristol, W.)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury if, in view of the order to Sir West Ridgeway to inquire into the social conditions of the population, the South African Committee will be allowed to report on the status and social condition of the Chinese coolies.

SIR H. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN

No, Sir, this will be no part of their duty.
