HC Deb 05 March 1953 vol 512 c68W
80. Mr. Brockway

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he is aware that the Eastern House of Assembly in Nigeria has passed a vote of no confidence in six Ministers who had previously resigned and subsequently withdrawn their resignations; that these Ministers have refused to vacate office; and what action he proposes to take to end the deadlock in the business of the Assembly which has consequently occurred.

Mr. Lyttelton

I would refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave yesterday to the hon. Member for Swindon (Mr. T. Reid). As regards the last part of the Question, the Governor has not asked me to intervene.
