The second conference commenced in February 1962, and a framework for self-governance was negotiated.[2]
The 1963 conference finalized constitutional arrangements for Kenya's independence as a Dominion, marking the end of more than 70 years of colonial rule. In all three meetings, Prime Minister Harold Macmillan ordered that the interests of the white settlers in Kenya effectively be ignored, and that the British government continue negotiations until "real and complete independence for Kenya" could be established. This led to some anger from within elements of the British Conservative Party who wanted Britain to find an arrangement that would postpone independence.[3]
