HC Deb 02 July 1925 vol 185 cc2824-5W
Lord H. CAVENDISH-BENTINCK

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he is aware of the dissatisfaction of the Civil Service in British Honduras at the Government's failure to put into operation the salaries scheme proposed by Sir Eyre Hutson in 1923 and by the substitution of the proposals since adopted; whether representations on the subject have been made by the staff affected to the Colonial Office; and whether he will make investigations into the representations thus made to him with a view to giving these State employés satisfactory terms of employment and living?

Mr. AMERY

I have recently received through the Governor of British Honduras a memorial on this subject from the British Honduras Civil Service Association, which is now engaging my attention.
