13. Mr. David Adams

asked the Under secretary of State for the Colonies whether an officer of his Department will be appointed to Cairo to advise the Minister of State on matters concerned with the Colonial Office?

Mr. Whiteley

A member of the Colonial Office has been appointed to the staff of the Minister of State.

Mr. Creech Jones

Will that member of the staff concern himself with Palestinian questions, or questions relating to the National Home in Palestine?

Mr. Whiteley

I cannot say. That answer was given in response to the Question by my hon. Friend the Member for Consett (Mr. David Adams).
