HC Deb 27 October 1909 vol 12 c998
Mr. GINNELL

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies, whether the Colonial Office exercises any control over the employment and dismissal of professional men by the Crown Agents for the Colonies; and, if so, how is it exercised?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for the COLONIES (Colonel Seely)

With regard to this question I would refer the hon. Member to paragraph 35 of the Report of the Committee of Inquiry of which I was Chairman, and which has been laid before the House.
