HC Deb 12 May 1908 vol 188 c920
*SIR CHARLES DILKE (Gloucestershire, Forest of Dean)

I beg to ask the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether any reply has now been received containing the observations of the Governor of Natal on a question asked as to the Report published in the Natal Government Gazette of 21st January by the Under-Secretary for Native Affairs on behalf of the Colonial Secretary of Natal, dealing with the unanimous finding of the Native Affairs Commission; and, if so, whether he can inform the House of the view taken by the Governor as to continuous breaches of faith with the Zulus in regard to their land situate in Zululand.

COLONEL SEELY

The Governor's reply on the legal point has been received and points out that the Under-Secretary's view as to the legislative authority of the Governor is not correct. No reply on the broader issue has yet been received.

Forward to
