HC Deb 14 November 1927 vol 210 c615
38. Mr. MONTAGUE

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the practice of requiring an oath of allegiance to the British Crown from the inhabitants of the mandated territory of Tanganyika applies to any mandated territory other than Tanganyika?

Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

In Tanganyika an oath of allegiance is only required from members of the Legislative Council and from the holders of certain public offices. The constitutional position of the other British "B" mandated territories permits a similar requirement.
