asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he has received the Report of the Phelps-Stokes Commission on the Kenya Colony; whether it is the intention of the Government to publish this Report; and, if so, how soon is it likely to be published?

Mr. THOMAS:

The answer to the first part of the question is in the negative. The Phelps-Stokes Commission is not a Government body, and it will, I assume, make its own arrangements for publishing its Report if it decide on publication.

Secretary of State

Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
