HC Deb 28 June 1932 vol 267 c1634
35. Colonel WEDGWOOD

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies to what extent the educational reforms which he has outlined for Malta will be affected or modified by the victory of the Nationalist party in that Colony?

The SECRETARY of STATE for the COLONIES (Sir Philip Cunliffe-Lister)

The policy of His Majesty's Government on this matter which I announced to the House has already been carried into legal effect by the Letters Patent issued on the 25th April last.

Colonel WEDGWOOD

Is the right hon. Gentleman satisfied that the Minister for Education in the Maltese Government will carry out the policy of His Majesty's Government?

Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTER

The provisions of the law sufficiently ensure that the decisions approved of in all quarters of the House, as laid down in Letters Patent, will be adhered to.
