HC Deb 19 July 1950 vol 477 cc2259-60
45. Mr. Watkins

asked the Prime Minister whether the reports of the three panels set up in September, 1949, by the Advisory Council for Wales will be pub- lished with the report of the Council in the Annual Report of Government action in Wales and Monmouthshire for the year ended 30th June, 1950; and when will the White Paper be published.

The Prime Minister (Mr. Attlee)

We have not yet received these reports, and until we have seen them I cannot very well say how they will be handled. It is hoped that the White Paper on Wales and Monmouthshire will be published in the early autumn.

Mr. Watkins

Inasmuch as we have previously had an assurance that the report of the Council will be made known to the House, may we have an assurance that the reports of the sub-committees also will be made available to Members of the House?

The Prime Minister

That is an exact repetition of the Question to which I have already replied.
