Reference: Cabinet 40 (28), Con- clusion 1 and Apperdix, Para.10.)
9. In regard to a decision of the Cabinet at
the Meeting referred to in the margin, that the
representative of the British Government should
be authorised to enter into negotiations with the
Canadian authorities with a view to securing the
reservation in certain undeveloped districts of
areas of land for British settlers, the Cabinet
agreed
That their intention was that the British representative should have power to explore and discuss schemes of this kind but not to settle them. The results of his discussions should be ad referendum to the Cabinet, and His Majesty's Government must not be committed in any way by these discus- sions.
