§ 6. Mr. Dribergasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he will request the Government of Northern Rhodesia to take immediate steps to abolish the present system of separate entrances for Africans and Europeans in post offices in that territory.
Mr. Creech JonesI understand that 32 out of the 51 existing post offices in Northern Rhodesia provide a common entrance for Europeans and Africans, and that the local Government intend to make the same arrangements at all new post offices. In regard to the 19 post offices without common entrance, I am taking the matter up with the local Government.
