HC Deb 27 November 1958 vol 596 c526
6. Mr. Brockway

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what constitutional changes are proposed for Trinidad and Tobago, following the recent official discussions in London with governmental delegations from those Territories.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

I have nothing to add to the reply which I gave to the hon. Member for Blackpool, South (Sir R. Robinson) on 3rd November.

Mr. Brockway

Would the right hon. Gentleman be a little more forthcoming? In view of the fact that we have now established the Federation of the West Indies, is not it possible for Trinidad and Tobago to have at least the same rights as Jamaica?

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

I do not think the hon. Member can have read HANSARD for 3rd November, when no less than four columns were devoted to dealing with this matter.
