§ 21 . Mr. G. HALL forasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether any Report has been received of the East African Governors' Conference which opened on 11th April, in particular regarding any discussions on the proposal to introduce Income Tax and Land and Cattle Taxes in the three territories?
§ Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTERThe answer is in the negative, and as the conference sat until 16th April, the hon. Member will understand that it is somewhat early for me to expect to receive a report of the discussions.
Captain CAZALETWill the right hon. Gentleman give the House some information as to the result of this Governors' Conference?
§ Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTERYes, certainly. Of course some of the things discussed must be confidential—it would be no good unless it could partake of the nature of a Cabinet discussion—but in so far as matters are not confidential, certainly I will give information.
