§ 22. Mr. Swinglerasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies when he expects to receive a report from the special commissioner appointed to examine the fiscal system in the Seychelles.
§ Mr. ProfumoProbably some time in February.
§ Mr. SwinglerMay I ask the Under-Secretary of State whether this report will be published? Is he aware that it is eagerly awaited by those hon. Members who take an interest in the affairs of the Seychelles? While we welcome the improvements which have been made, we are aware from recent official documents that there are many grave deficiencies still in existence. Can the hon. Gentleman say whether the report will be immediately published?
§ Mr. ProfumoIt will be published as soon as possible after it has been completed.
