§ Viscount SANDONasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether it is proposed to postpone the holding of the next West Indian Conference; and, if so, what are the reasons for varying the unanimous decision of the last one which met in London?
§ Mr. ORMSBY-GOREThe first meeting of the West Indies Conference will be held in the winter of 1928–29, instead of that of 1927–28, because the majority of the Colonies concerned have expressed a preference for the former date.
