HC Deb 23 November 1925 vol 188 c898
60. Mr. HAYES

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether his attention has been drawn to the proceedings of a conference held at Tukuyu last month, presided over by Lord Delamere; whether he is aware that this conference passed a resolution urging that freehold titles to land in Nyasaland should be substituted for the present system of leasehold titles; and whether he is prepared to make it clear to the settlers of East Africa that His Majesty's Government is not prepared to agree to any change in the existing procedure?

Mr. AMERY

I have not yet received a copy of the resolutions of the Conference. The whole question of land titles in Nyasaland is under consideration.
