§ The Under-Secretary of State for Commonwealth Relations and for the Colonies (Mr. R. P. Hornby)With your permission, I should like to inform the House of a telegram which I have received today from our High Commissioner in Kenya.
The message reads as follows:
The Prime Minister has noted with satisfaction the Motion tabled in the House condemning the attempted assault on his person when attending the Commonwealth Prime Ministers' Conference in London. He has requested me to convey his gratitude to the House of Commons and wishes to reciprocate most warmly the expression of lasting good relations between Kenya and the British peoples.I feel sure that the whole House will be grateful to the Prime Minister of Kenya for this generous message and shares his hopes for the future good relations between Kenya and Britain.
§ Mr. Frederick Willey (Sunderland, South)May I thank the Under-Secretary for the statement that he has made, and associate right hon. and hon. Members on this side of the House with everything that he has said.
