§ 2. Mr. Palingasked the Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs whether he has obtained any assurances from the Union of South Africa which would enable him to consider the application of the International Labour Office Recruiting of Indigenous Workers Convention of 1936 to the Protectorates of South Africa?
Mr. M. MacDonaldYes, Sir, but the question whether in applying the Convention to the High Commission Territories in South Africa it will be necessary to provide for some modification in respect of the provision relating to the payment of travelling expenses is still under consideration.
Mr. Creech JonesWill the right hon. Gentleman make serious representations on this matter, because the question is very widely applicable to the Protectorates, and is equally applicable to Nyasaland?
