§ 11. Colonel WEDGWOODasked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether he will lay Papers relating to the negotiations between the Government of India and the Union Government of South Africa in connection with the anti-Indian legislative proposals of the latter Government?
§ Earl WINTERTONCommunications are. still passing between the two Governments, and I do not think that any good purpose would be served by laying Papers.
§ Colonel WEDGWOODCan we be assured that Papers will be laid before any legislation by the Government of South Africa is passed into law?
§ Earl WINTERTONIt would be quite unconstitutional to promise that, for the reason that the Government of South Africa have an absolute right to pass any such legislation.
