asked the Secretary of State for Commonwealth Relations and the Colonies what arrangements have been made for 154 Hereros who have crossed into Bechuanaland from Southwest Africa; and if the status of refugees will be accorded to them.
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.
