§ Mr. Rankinasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies on what basis the African member of the committee of inquiry into the Gwembe disturbances was chosen.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydThe Governor considered it desirable that the African member should hold an important public position, should have a good command of English and should be fully capable of undertaking the duties of a member of the Commission. He should, of course, have no personal interest in the area or among people concerned. All these requirements are combined in Chief Shimumbi.
