HC Deb 05 May 1937 vol 323 c1142
23. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he has yet received information concerning the nature of a further amendment to the Native Administration Amendment Ordinance No. 35, of 1936?

Mr. Ormsby-Gore

I assume that the hon. Member is referring to Gold Coast Ordinance No. 25, of 1936, which amended the Native Administration Ordinance, 1927. I am not aware of any proposal further to amend the Ordinance.

24. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he has yet received further particulars concerning investigation of the letters alleged to have been written by Sir Ofori Atta to certain high officials of the Gold Coast Government with the intention to frustrate the ends of justice; and by whom the investigation was carried out?

Mr. Ormsby-Gore

I have no further information beyond that contained in the report on this subject which was placed in the Library of the House on 17th February. That report shows that the investigations were conducted by the local police.
