§ MR. J. F. MASON (Windsor)To ask the First Lord of the Treasury if the Government of Natal will be entitled to offer evidence to the South African Committee; and if, in that event, the reference to the Committee would entitle the Colony of Natal to express its views as to the desirability of including the 1527 Orange River Colony within its boundaries.
(Answered by Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman.) No, sir; the reference to the Committee will not permit of such evidence being given.
