HC Deb 01 February 1944 vol 396 cc1148-9W
Mr. Mathers

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he will make a statement regarding the work of the Commission dealing with the land situation in Northern Rhodesia; whether its Report is available; and what are its recommendations and the policy of the Government regarding them.

Colonel Stanley

I am not yet in a position to make a statement. No decisions have yet been taken on the work of any of the three Commissions. As I stated in my reply of 28th October last, the third Commission was only appointed in the second half of last year.
