HC Deb 24 May 1944 vol 400 c736
40. Mr. Riley

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he is aware of the suspicion which has been aroused in Jamaica by the refusal of the Government to publish the new draft Constitution until it has been accepted by the Legislative Council; and will he take steps to have it published so that adequate public consideration can be given to its provisions before being adopted.

Colonel Stanley

I would refer to the reply which I gave to the Honourable Member for Linlithgow (Mr. Mathers) on 17th May, to which I have nothing to add.
