HC Deb 17 December 1947 vol 445 c1691
36. Mr. Keeling

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he will make a statement about the future of the Palestine Currency Board.

Mr. Creech Jones

The question will have to be discussed with the United Nations Committee, but I see no reason to doubt that the existing Board will continue to function, in the interests of holders of currency and Palestine generally, pending an orderly transition to whatever arrangements may in due course be made for the future management of the currency of Palestine.
