19. Mr. LUNN

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he has received the report of the commission of inquiry into mui tsai in Hong Kong and elsewhere; and whether it will be made available to Members of this House?

The SECRETARY of STATE for the COLONIES (Mr. Ormsby-Gore)

The Mui Tsai Commission have not yet submitted their report to me. It is my intention that it shall be made available to Parliament.

Mr. LUNN

Can the right hon. Gentleman say when he expects to have the report of the Commission?

Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

No. They have not let me know when it will be ready.

Mr. WHITE

Will the right hon. Gentleman take into consideration the advisability of publishing the evidence?

Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

I will consider it.
