Mr. Creech Jonesasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether any declarations on reconstruction schemes in Palestine have been made; and whether the future plans are being prepared on the assumption of the White Paper policy?
§ Colonel StanleyAn indication of the Palestine Government's plans for postwar rehabilitation and reconstruction was given in an official communiqué issued at Jerusalem on 23rd March and in a broadcast address by the High Commissioner of the same date. I am sending copies of these statements to my hon. Friend. As regards the second part of the Question, I have nothing to add to the reply which I gave to the hon. Member for Consett (Mr. David Adams) on 7th July.
