HC Deb 14 May 1956 vol 552 cc146-7W
66. Mr. Brockway

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Commonwealth Relations what reply has been given to the representations made by leading members of the Bamangwato tribe in twenty towns and villages of Bechuanaland that concessions of mineral rights should not be given to a mining company in the Union of South Africa without the consent of Seretse and Tshekedi Kbama.

Commander Noble

No representations have been received other than those which the hon. Member has forwarded to me. I have asked the High Commissioner for a report and will write to the hon. Member when it is received.
