§ MR. WALKER (Leicestershire, Melton)To ask the Under Secretary of State for 907 the Colonies, whether, seeing that such publications as the Annual Reports upon the Protectorates in Africa, and the Blue-book upon the disturbances in Natal and Zululand, cannot be understood without a reference to maps, while the ordinary atlases are totally inadequate, the Secretary of State will give instructions that maps shall in future be appended to these publications.
(Answered by Mr. Churchill.) The Secretary of State will bear the suggestion of the hon. Member in mind, and in any cases where it may appear that the ordinary atlases would be inadequate, he will consider whether a suitable map could be appended without causing undue delay and with a proper regard to public economy. But it would not be practicable to prepare a special map in all cases and often nothing but a special map would suffice.
