By Gregor William Davey M.A. (History) (Open), B.A. (Hons.) Syd. 0736340 Supervisor: Dr Sarah Stockwell King’s College, London. This thesis is presented in partial fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History at King’s College London. 2014 96,573 Words 2 Abstract: This thesis seeks to explain the development of an ‘imperial intelligence system’ connecting Whitehall and the colonies. The system had two roles; to collect information and process it into intelligence for policy and decision making and to provide machinery to coordinate and implement covert action in support of policy. The ‘system’ consisted of parallel information channels; interconnected, coordinated, and directed by committees at various levels. Analysis was mainly conducted in Whitehall departments. The system reflected the split between ‘security’ and ‘foreign’ intelligence and the ‘information gathering’ and ‘covert action’ roles in the British machinery. The system paralleled the British professional intelligence machinery headed by the JIC and this division prevented information from being fully integrated with other consumers in Whitehall. The system was shaped by four major factors: threats; experience; the nature of the administrative system; and the development of professional agenda in both the administration and security organisation (the Security Service and Colonial Police Service) which dictated the points of reform and development over time. Before the Second World War information gathered by ‘police’ and ‘administrators’ was used to manage a colony’s internal politics. The end of ‘colonial isolation’ during the 1930s and 1940s meant colonial problems affected the British state’s international prestige and later its ability to fight the Cold War. To counter this, Whitehall departments sought information to increase their control over colonial affairs, despite the opposition of the Colonial Office which was used to a degree of autonomy. The Colonial Office was more closely coordinated into Whitehall. Colonial and metropolitan intelligence systems were connected and common practices and product formats adopted. Whitehall tried to use ‘counter subversion’ to shape colonial politics. Security intelligence became increasingly important in the last stages of decolonization because, it was the last source of information handed over and consequently it shaped Whitehall’s reactions to events. The machinery also assisted the British to maintain their influence in new states after independence. 3 Acknowledgements: I would like to thank: the Staff at the Freedom of Information Section of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office who responded to my requests for the opening of intelligence files with speed and generosity; the staff of the National Archives of the United Kingdom; various correspondents who served in the Colonial Police Service and British South Africa Police and who have communicated with me over the years most generously but whose identity it would not be appropriate to publicise; colleagues in the Open University including Clive Emsley, Bernard Waites, Chris Williams, Georgina Sinclair and Stuart Mitchell who were all most encouraging during my period of research; my family, particularly my mother Leath Davey and my aunt Bibi Calf, who paid in various ways; my friend Anna Sheffield whose ability to cope with my oddities and obsessions is incredible and whose calm counsel has made much possible; my friend Mary Fotheringham who provided constant encouragement; Andrew Trevillion who ensured I survived to write it. Finally I would like to acknowledge my father, the late Brian Davey who would, I think, despite our differences, be proud I stuck it out. Any mistakes are, of course, my own. 4 Table of Contents: Title page: p.1. Abstract: p.2. Acknowledgements: p.3 Table of contents: pp.4-5. Glossary: pp.6-8.

  • CHAPTER 9 on 1 April 1924 Administration by the British South
    CHAPTER 9 On 1 April 1924 administration by the British South Africa Company ended and the Colonial Office took over direct responsibility for the government of Northern Rhodesia. Herbert James Stanley CMG was appointed the first Governor and Commander in Chief of the Territory. He was to be knighted later in the year. Herbert Stanley had joined the staff of the High Commissioner in South Africa in 1910 and was Resident Commissioner for Southern and Northern Rhodesia from 1915 until 1918. He had then become Imperial Secretary in South Africa. He was, therefore, well qualified for his new post. He was received at Government House by Colonel Stennett and inspected a guard of honour 100 strong under Major Dickinson accompanied by the band. Captain Castle acted as the Governor's ADC for the swearing in ceremony. Things did not go so smoothly for Stanley's first visit to Fort Jameson on 10 July. Captain Graham dismissed the guard of honour at dusk and the Governor arrived later that evening having been delayed in the two day motor journey from Blantyre, Nyasaland. The quickest route from Livingstone to Fort Jameson was still via Southern Rhodesia and Nyasaland. On 11 July Stanley inspected the police camp, gaol and other government buildings and lunched with Captain and Mrs Graham. On 12 July he held an indaba for which the Chewa formed up on the right, the Akunda on the left and the Ngoni, still organised in regiments, held centre stage. After the speechmaking by the Governor and chiefs, there were sports for all races, organised by Captain Graham.

It reveals that the government mainly responded to the decline in government revenues, the widespread poverty and destitution and the distortion of internal trade. The study shows that during the emergency period, 1932-1934, the administration made changes to government structures and functioning so as to curtail expenditure and balance its budget. It reorganised staff in the public service, reduced budgetary allocations to departments and realigned several departments and provinces.

Taking over the reins of NkHWazI from the late David Williams and MaFF, who between them covered 25 years of editorship, is a daunting prospect – however, behind every good man is a better woman, in my case, Janice. In putting together our first edition, we have been greatly aided by our printer, Philip Smith, of Stable Print in Somerset. The format is unchanged and we hope you enjoy the contents. It has been a saddening business dealing with the Valete and Obituaries section. I was in the same squad as Eric Pitt and David Buchanan. Regrettably this is an inevitable process and I guess the list will only grow longer – cheerful thought!! aT previous aGM’s I suggested that the membership consider their obits if they wish to be remembered in NkHWazI. I now realise how helpful it would be for families in notifying deaths to the editorship (provided the obits are not too “waffly”).
