§ MR. JESSE COLLINGS (Birmingham, Bordesley)I beg to ask the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies when the Papers referring to matters connected with the Jamaica earthquake and to Sir Alexander Swettenham's resignation will be issued.
§ MR. CHURCHILLThe Secretary of State is in communication with my right hon. friend the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs and the question of publication is receiving consideration. I cannot say more at the moment.
§ MR. JESSE COLLINGSHas not the hon. Gentleman already promised that Papers shall be laid?
§ MR. CHURCHILLI am not aware of any such promise. The only statement that has been made was that we would consider whether any, and if any, what Papers should be laid. That process is still going on.
