§ Mr. Brockwayasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what representations have been made by Dr. Cheddi Jagan, Minister of Trade and Industry of British Guiana, regarding the treatment which he and other members of the British Guiana delegation received from the police outside South Africa House on 23rd March; and what reply has been sent to him.
§ Mr. R. A. ButlerDr. Jagan and some of his colleagues called on me yesterday to complain of their treatment by the police when attempting to lodge a protest with the High Commissioner for South Africa. While undertaking to look into certain matters which Dr. Jagan raised, I said that I was satisfied, from police reports and the statements of independent witnesses, that the police had carried out a difficult task with all possible consideration.
