HC Deb 24 May 1960 vol 624 c24W
57. Mr. Stonehouse

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he will make a statement on the situation in Northern Rhodesia and on his discussions with Mr. Kenneth Kaunda, President of the United National Independence Party.

Mr. Iain Macleod

The situation in Northern Rhodesia remains as I described it in my reply to the hon. Member for Eton and Slough (Mr. Brockway) on 17th May.

I issued a statement last Friday evening immediately after my interview with Mr. Kaunda, which the hon. Member may now have seen. I am sending him a copy.
