§ 54. Mr. J. Johnsonasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies for what reasons the Government of Northern Rhodesia withhold official recognition of the Northern Rhodesian African National Congress.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydThe Government of Northern Rhodesia has not withheld official recognition from any political organisation in Northern Rhodesia. It recognises the existence of the African National Congress as a political organisation, assumes that it expresses the views of its members in matters covered by its constitution, but does not recognise it as representing the views of all Africans in Northern Rhodesia.
