Abstract
Up to July 1925 the affairs of all the British Empire, apart from the United Kingdom and India, were dealt with by the Colonial Office. In that month a new secretaryship of state, for Dominion Affairs, took over from the Colonial Office business connected with the self-governing Dominions, the self-governing colony of Southern Rhodesia and the South African High Commission territories (Basutoland, the Bechuanaland Protectorate and Swaziland), and business relating to the Imperial Conference.
