HC Deb 16 June 1910 vol 17 c1438
Mr. HARWOOD

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether either of the Commissioners appointed to inquire into the failure of the last cotton crop in Egypt had yet reported; and whether any information had been received as to the alleged substitution of natives for whites in the administration of the irrigation system?

The SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Sir E. Grey)

I am not aware whether either Commission has yet reported: I have no information as regards the second part of the question. I am making inquiry on both points.
