§ 63. Mr. RHYS DAVIESasked the Secretary of State foi the Colonies whether he has any statement to make on the present position in Palestine?
§ The SECRETARY of STATE for the COLONIES (Sir Philip Cunliffe-Lister)I am not sure what particular matters in Palestine the hon. Member has in mind, but I think the House would be interested to know that the High Commissioner during the summer authorised a supplementary labour schedule for the admission as immigrants of 1,200 skilled and unskilled workmen, and that I have now learnt that the Acting High Commissioner has authorised the grant of 32 1,200 immigration certificates in anticipation and on account of the labour schedule for the six months' period ending 31st March, 1935.
