§ 33. Mr. Palingasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the report of the West Indies Royal Commission has been completed; and, if so, when it will be published?
§ The Secretary of State for the Colonies (Mr. Malcolm MacDonald)No, Sir. I cannot yet add anything more definite to the reply which I gave to a similar question by the hon. Member for Dews-bury (Mr. Riley) on 27th September.
§ Mr. PalingMay we be assured that it is not proposed to hold up indefinitely this report, because of difficulties connected with the war?
§ Mr. MacDonaldCertainly. There is no intention of that sort whatever.
