§ Colonel WEDGWOODasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether a Return is available—if not, whether it will be prepared—showing the contribution in personnel made by native races in the Dependencies during the War, whether as military or labour units, with the casualties suffered by these forces?
Mr. WOODMaterial is being collected which will eventually give what the hon. Member desires, but, in order to provide accurate particulars, further time is required. It is presumed that the question only refers to the Colonies and Protectorates under the Colonial Office.
