HC Deb 02 April 1914 vol 60 cc1336-7
36. Mr. TOUCHE

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the nationality of British women marrying foreigners in the different British Dominions and Colonies is regulated in all cases by the existing Imperial law on the subject; or, if otherwise, would he accede to an Address for a Return, showing the short effect of the laws affecting the nationality of British women marrying foreigners in the self-governing Dominions?

The SECRETARY of STATE for the COLONIES (Mr. Harcourt)

The rule laid down in Section 10 of the Naturalisation Act, 1870, is in force in the different British Dominions and Colonies.
