HC Deb 08 March 1951 vol 485 c91W
106. Mr. Parker

asked the Secretary of State for Commonwealth Relations what reply he gave in Basutoland to the request of the people for the removal of their South African officials.

Mr. Gordon-Walker

In my reply to a speech by the Paramount Chieftainess in which she raised this point, I repeated the assurance given in reply to a Question by the hon. Member on 17th November, 1949. I said that I, too, have every confidence in the staff of the High Commission Territories.
