<P> In Northern Rhodesia, the efforts of the Colonial Office to protect and promote African interests were frustrated by the resistance of settler groups . These opposed the government's role in African education and supported the legal exclusion Africans from many administrative jobs . The principle of the paramountcy of African interests was entirely rejected by the majority of Northern Rhodesian settlers . As the Commission's Report appeared to rule out responsible government for Northern Rhodesia by itself, in February 1928, two Northern Rhodesia settler representatives approached the Southern Rhodesian government to discuss terms for amalgamation . The terms offered were generous, including a high level of representation for them in a combined parliament, guaranteed ministerial office in any combined government and other concessions . </P> <P> In June 1930, the Colonial Secretary of the Labour Government, Lord Passfield, published his Memorandum on native policy in East Africa in June 1930 . His statement of colonial policy was an emphatic reassertion of the principle of paramountcy of African interests, and he dismissed settler aspirations of self - government in Kemya and Northern Rhodesia . This had the effect of pushing Northern Rhodesian Europeans towards union with Southern Rhodesia . </P>
