HC Deb 23 March 1959 vol 602 c914
The Secretary of State for the Colonies (Mr. Alan Lennox-Boyd)

I wish to inform the House that I have received a despatch from the Governor of Nyasaland giving details of the situation in the Protectorate leading up to the declaration of the state of emergency and of subsequent events.

This is being published as a White Paper, copies of which will be available in the Vote Office at 4 p.m. today.

Mr. Gaitskell

Naturally, we shall wish to study the White Paper before making any comment on it. It may be that afterwards we shall have to raise the matter in the House.
