44. Mr. David Adamsasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the High Commissioner for Palestine has decided to add to his official staff persons from this country experienced in local administration for the duty of guiding and advising the local governing bodies under his jurisdiction?
§ The Secretary of State for the Colonies (Mr. Ormsby-Gore)The desirability of such an appointment has been under examination by the Government of Palestine. I do not think, however, that any further steps can usefully be taken pending consideration of the report of the Royal Commission.
