§ 6. Mr. Hector Hughesasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he will make a statement on the present conditions in Kenya indicating what progress has been made to the latest convenient date towards settlement and peace in that country.
§ Mr. LytteltonI hope to make a full statement next week.
§ Mr. HughesWill that statement include a reference to the economic and social conditions in Kenya, which are the root cause of the disturbance?
§ Mr. LytteltonPerhaps I might ask the hon. and learned Gentleman to wait for the statement, when he will see whether he is satisfied with it.
§ Mr. BaldwinWould my right hon. Friend send to the hon. and learned Gentleman a copy of the speech made a few days ago by Sir Evelyn Baring, Governor of Kenya?
§ Mr. LytteltonOne of the reasons why I thought it inappropriate to make a statement on Kenya today was that the Governor's speech was published only this morning.
