§ 32. Mr. DAVID ADAMSasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he was informed by the Governor of Trinidad that the area to be acquired for the purpose of a new rifle range in Trinidad was also intended to accommodate certain other public institutions; what is the nature of those institutions; and whether he has received any further communications from the local government on the subject?
§ Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTERThe original intention was that the area to be acquired for the new rifle range in Trinidad should accommodate also the Young Offenders Detention Institution and the Preventive Detention Prison. The Governor has, however, recently reported that owing to the financial situation, he decided that only the actual area of land necessary for the range should be acquired and that consideration of the question of transferring the institutions mentioned should be postponed.
