HC Deb 18 November 1954 vol 533 cc57-8W
76. Mrs. White

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Commonwealth Relations when the report on economic development in the High Commission Territories is to be published.

Mr. Dodds-Parker

Mr. A. C. B. Symon, an Assistant Under-Secretary of the Commonwealth Relations Office, visited the High Commission Territories in April and May to provide my noble Friend with an up-to-date and comprehensive review of economic development, so that funds available can be used to the best possible advantage. His report was confidential and not for publication. I will however consider placing in the Library in due course an account of what has been achieved and is projected in respect of economic development in the Territories.
