Mr. Dempsey
asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies how many persons still remain detained under the former Emergency Regulations in Kenya; how many of these were detained without a trial; and what is the longest period of time any of the latter have been detained, at the latest convenient date.
Mr. Iain Macleod
None, Sir.
Mr. Dempsey
