HC Deb 26 February 1947 vol 433 c289W
77. Mr. Gammans

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies when Lord Winster was appointed Governor of Cyprus and when he took up his duties

Mr. Creech Jones

Lord Winster's appointment was announced on 5th October but will not become effective until he assumes duty in Cyprus. Such intervals are not unusual and result from the practice of announcing appointments of Colonial Governorships as long as possible in advance.
