§ 79. Mr. Skinnardasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he will expedite action on the recommendations of the Settlement Commission with regard, particularly, to the expansion of sugar, banana, cocoa and citrus growing in British Honduras, in view of the fact that those crops have already been grown successfully in the Colony.
Mr. Creech JonesI can assure my hon. Friend that these recommendations are receiving our urgent study and action is being taken on them where practicable without delay. It must not be overlooked, however, that major developments of this sort require much careful preparation.
