XIII.— EMIGRATION COMMITTEE. 



The formation of a Standing Committee on Emigration was the result of a conference 

 which was organised by the Royal Colonial Institute and held at the Whitehall 

 Rooms on May 30-31, 1910. Delegates from forty-nine emigration societies in the 

 United Kingdom attended the conference, and the basis of the discussions was (1) 

 diverting as far as possible the stream of emigration now going outside the Empire, 

 and (2) (generally) to direct emigrants from the United Kingdom to the British 

 Dominions Overseas. 



A report of the conference was subsequently issued, which contained a complete 

 record of each day's proceedings. 



In accordance with a resolution which was unanimously passed, the following 

 representative Standing Committee has been appointed : —
