Mr. Creech Jonesasked the Undersecretary of State for the Colonies 360W whether he will issue as a White Paper to Members of this House a review of the progress made on the supervision of labour conditions in the Colonial Empire; and if he will append the basic circulars which have been issued by the Secretary of State since 1930?
§ Mr. George HallHaving regard to the necessity for economy, I do not consider that the reproduction of these documents as a White Paper would be justified. A copy of the memorandum recently prepared in the Colonial Office and made available to the Press in connection with the International Labour Conference has been placed in the Library of the House. I will gladly arrange also for a copy to be supplied by the Colonial Office to any hon. Member who would like to have one.
