HC Deb 27 June 1917 vol 95 cc407-8W
Commander WEDGWOOD

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what the position now is relative to the scheme for settling soldiers and officers on Crown lands in British East Africa; and to whom applications for such land should be made?

Mr. LONG

I am not yet in a position to add anything to the answer which I gave to my hon. and gallant Friend's previous question of the 21st of February. I have not yet received the Report of the Commission to which I then referred. For the present applications for land would be premature.
