§ Mr. de Rothschildasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether there has been, on the part of the administration in Cyprus, any restriction of the publication in Cyprus of references to that Colony in this House, and more particularly, to those made in the Debate of 7th June?
656W
Mr. M. MacDonaldThere has been no such specific restriction on the part of the Cyprus Government. I understand that an editor asked the Commissioner of Nicosia regarding the publication of certain passages in the Debate of 7th June. His reply was that he could give no instructions on the point, but that as he had been asked for his advice, his personal opinion was that publication would not be advisable.
