TANGANYIKA (MWANZA AFRICAN UNION BRANCH)

HC Deb 29 March 1955 vol 539 cc25-6W

Mr. J. Hynd

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies the unlawful or unconstitutional methods adopted by the Mwanza Branch of the Tanganyika African National Union which occasioned the refusal of registration and sequestering of the branch's property.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

As I told the hon. Member on 8th December, registration was refused because the Registrar of Societies was satisfied that this branch was being used for purposes prejudicial to peace, order and good government. I do not think it would be in the public interest for me to add to that reply.
