§ 37. Mr. MANDERasked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies the present position with regard to amendments proposed by the Colonial Office to the Native Lands Trust Bill in Kenya Colony; and when it is intended that these proposals shall become law?
§ Dr. SHIELSI have nothing to add at present to the reply which I gave to the hon. Member for Orkney and Shetland (Sir R. Hamilton) on the 26th February.
§ Mr. MANDERCan the hon. Member say when he is likely to be in a position to make a further statement?
§ Dr. SHIELSMy Noble Friend is in communication with the Governor on this subject, and I expect it will be possible to make an announcement shortly?
§ Colonel WEDGWOODMay we take it that the Government's view of these Amendments will not be changed owing to the action of the Legislative Assembly in Kenya?
§ Dr. SHIELSI would suggest that my right hon. and gallant Friend should wait a little longer, and we can find that out.
