§ 11. Mr. Prittasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he will arrange that the representative of the Africans on the Legislative Council of Northern Rhodesia shall be selected by the Africans themselves.
§ Mr. George HallIt is the intention that the representatives of Africans on the Legislative Council should be Africans selected through the machinery of the Provincial African Councils and of the proposed African Central Council. When the latter council is setup, it will consist of Africans selected by the provincial councils. The representatives will be African. I would refer to the full reply which I gave on 17th October to my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for Central Newcastle-on-Tyne (Mr. Wilkes).
