HC Deb 21 March 1917 vol 91 c1893
32. General IVOR PHILIPPS

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether any of the slaves in that portion of German East Africa now occupied by British troops were owned by the German Government and by German officials or settlers; if so, in whose possession such slaves now are; and what steps are being taken for their care and protection?

Mr. LONG

I have no information on the subject, but I will cause inquiry to be made.
