§ 16. Mr. Byersasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether it is proposed to introduce in the various Crown Colonies, Protectorates and Mandated Territories, and more particularly in the West African Colonies, legislation for the prevention of monopolistic practices similar to that recently enacted in the United Kingdom.
Mr. Creech JonesThe introduction of any similar legislation in Colonial territories is, of course, primarily a matter for the individual Colonial Governments concerned. I am at present considering whether any, and if so what, guidance should be given to Colonial Governments on this subject.
