HC Deb 21 April 1920 vol 128 cc397-8
67. Colonel WEDGWOOD

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he has yet received the Ainsworth Circular respecting labour from East Africa; and will he have the same laid upon the Table or circulated with the Official Report?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for the COLONIES (Lieut.-Colonel Amery)

I have not yet received the Circular from the Acting Governor of the East Africa Protectorate. The question of laying it on the Table will be considered when it is received.

Colonel WEDGWOOD

How much longer shall we have to wait for a Circular which was asked for months ago?

Lieut.-Colonel AMERY

I understand that it has been on the road some weeks.

Colonel WEDGWOOD

Will the hon. and gallant Member cable for a copy?

Lieut.-Colonel AMERY

No, Sir. It is on the way.
