SOUTH AFRICAN PROTECTORATES
QUESTION OF TRANSFER NO CHANGE IN POLICY (British Official Wireless) (Received 18th June, 1.37 p.m.) RUGBY, 17th June. The position of the South African Protectorates was the subject of a parliamentary reply by the Undersecretary for the Dominions (Lord Harlington) who recalled the aide memoire published after conversations between the Dominions Secretary and the Prime Minister of the Union last year, which stated that the policy of both the United Kingdom and the Union Governments, for the next few years should be directed to bringing about a situation lii which, if a transfer were to become a matter of practical politics, it could be effected with full acquiescence of the populations concerned. He added: “This still represents the policy of the Government here, and I have nothing to add to that statement.”
