Declaration of Human Rights (Hansard, 3 July 1958)

HC Deb 03 July 1958 vol 590 c109W 109W

7. Mr. Wedgwood Bean
asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he will arrange for the text of the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights to be made available in all Colonies in English and in the languages mainly used there.

§ Mr. Profumo
Local reproduction of the Declaration is a matter for consideration by Colonial Governments. The Declaration was brought to their notice when it was drawn up and I shall be recalling it to their attention in connection with its tenth anniversary later this year.
