§ 78. Mr. Harold Daviesasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies by what authority the Governor of Northern Rhodesia declared the publications listed in General Notice No. 237 of 1954; and if he will arrange for copies of these publications to be placed in the Library.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydThe import and circulation of these publications were prohibited by the Governor in Council under Section 53 of the Penal Code as containing matter contrary to the public interest. I regret that I do not think it practicable to obtain and to place in the Library the publications involved; several are published abroad, including some which emanate from the headquarters of Communist organisations on the Continent; and many are periodicals.
85. Mrs. Whiteasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies for what reasons Paramount Chief Mpezeni and Senior Chief Nsefu of Northern Rhodesia have been threatened with deposition; and what conditions have been proposed subject to which they might retain office.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydThe administrative record and general conduct of Paramount Chief Mpezeni has recently made it necessary for the Provincial Commissioner to warn him that unless he improves it will become necessary to recommend his deposition to the Governor. Senior Chief Nsefu has not been threatened with deposition.
