74. Mr. W. R. Williams

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether there is any progress to report in the preparation for a constitution which will give elective representation to the people of the Falkland Islands.

As indicated in my reply to my hon. Friend on 23rd October last, I await the report of the new Governor, who has recently arrived in the Colony. Meanwhile two Unofficial Members have recently been added to the Executive Council.
