Sir GILBERT PARKER

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he had received any information from the authorities of Uganda to the effect that prospectors in the employ of the King of the Belgians were extracting gold from a point south-west of Lake Albert, on the British side of the boundary; and, if not, whether he would make inquiries?

Colonel SEELY

No information has been received from the Government of Uganda to the effect stated, but inquiry shall be made.
