§ 22. Mr. J. Johnsonasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies when he intends to institute some form of franchise for Africans in Nyasaland.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydThe Governor is coming to London to discuss with me next week the constitutional questions which he has already considered with representatives of the three communities at Zomba. I would, therefore, prefer not to make a statement about any constitutional matters affecting Nyasaland for the time being.
§ Mr. JohnsonWhen the Governor comes to this country, will the right hon. Gentleman impress on him that if elections are good enough for Europeans and Asians, they are perhaps equally good enough for Africans?
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydI will bear that in mind.
