§ The SECRETARY of STATE for the COLONIES (Mr. Amery)I met the Elected Members' Delegation on the 18th February, and, after hearing them, informed them that I adhered to the decision that the Constitution must be modified so as to secure ultimate control to the Secretary of State; that a Bill to enable a new Constitution to be enacted would be introduced into Parliament forthwith; and that I should be prepared to consider very carefully their suggestions with regard to the details of the new Constitution.
