§ Sir E. GRAHAM-LITTLEasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he has considered the copy sent to him of the resolutions unanimously passed at the meeting of the combined East African sections of the British Medical Association, at Kampala on 28th May, urging an immediate inquiry into the causes of mental and physical backwardness in African Natives; whether, in view of the return of Sir Malcolm Hailey from his tour of inspection of racial conditions in Central Africa, his report may now be made public; and whether action will now be taken in accordance with the opinions of responsible medical authorities in Africa?
§ Mr. ORMSBY-GOREI have received from the hon. Member a copy of the resolutions mentioned, but have no other information. As regards the second part of the question, Sir Malcolm Hailey's report will not be made to me, but to the African Research Survey and the question of publication is a matter for that body. As regards the last part of the question, I have nothing to add to the reply given to the hon. Member on this subject on the 11th July last.
