§ Mr. Rileyasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he has under consideration the advisability of sending a labour adviser to inquire into and make a report on labour conditions in East Africa?
§ Colonel StanleyI agree that a report on labour conditions In East Africa would be most useful, but as I explained on 3rd December, my labour adviser is at present on a visit to West Africa, and I do not wish to cut short his inquiries there or to delay his return to this country to render a report. The question how, in these circumstances, my hon. Friend's suggestion could best be carried out is one which I shall bear in mind.
