§ MR. LONSDALEI beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether the Committee of Inquiry which is to proceed to South Africa will investigate the question of Chinese indentured labour, with a view to advising the Government as to how far its maintenance is necessary to the development and prosperity of the Transvaal and Orange River Colony.
SIR H. CAMPBELL-BANNER MANI answered a somewhat similar Question yesterday.† The matter the hon. Member refers to is quite beyond the scope of the inquiry.
