§ 77. Mr. LANSBURYasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he can give the House any further in formation relative to the shooting which recently took place at Singapore; and has he yet decided whether a special public inquiry into the circumstances connected with this incident should be held?
§ The SECRETARY of STATE for the COLONIES (Mr. Amery)I understand that the inquest is still proceeding, and I am not yet in a position to add anything to the reply returned to the hon. Member on the 16th March.
§ Mr. LANSBURYCan the right hon. Gentleman say when he is likely to be able to give any further information?
§ Mr. AMERYI am not sure how long the inquest proceedings will take. Perhaps the hon. Gentleman will put down a question in a week's time.
