§ Mr. Thorneycroftasked the Prime Minister whether he proposes to publish the instructions given to the mission led by Earl Mountbatten of Burma, which it s intended should visit Commonwealth countries for the purpose of discussing immigration problems.
§ The Prime MinisterNo. Since the mission will engage in exploratory and fact-finding discussions with other Commonwealth Governments, I do not think it would be appropriate to publish instructions. The function of the mission was described by my right hon. Friend the Lord President in the debate on 23rd March.
