HC Deb 08 July 1936 vol 314 c1183
38. Mr. THURTLE

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether it is the intention of the Government, during the interim period before the new constitution for Malta is promulgated, to see that all persons inhabiting the Colony shall have full liberty of conscience in regard to religious matters?

Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

The existing Constitution provides that all persons in Malta shall have full liberty of conscience and the free exercise of their respective modes of religious worship: and it is the intention of His Majesty's Government fully to maintain this provision in force.
