§ 69. Mr. Lennox-Boydasked the Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs whether, under the recent proclamation issued by the Union Government of South Africa on foreign activities in South-West Africa, freedom to carry on political activities is to be limited to British subjects or to Union nationals?
The Under-Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs (Marquess of Hartington)I understand that the restrictions on political activities are, under the proclamation, limited to aliens. Consequently the proclamation does not affect British subjects, whether they are Union nationals or not.
§ Mr. ThurtleWill the Noble Lord see that there is as much political freedom enjoyed by Germans resident in West Africa as is enjoyed by German citizens in Germany?
