§ Mr. MacVEAGHasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether any complaints have been received at the Colonial Office regarding the administration of the Seychelles islands; and, if so, what decision has been arrived at?
Mr. HARCOURTI have recently received a number of complaints. Many of them were of a trivial character and have so far disclosed no ground for any action on my part except that I have ordered an inquiry into allegations respecting the conduct of a particular officer.
