§ Mr. F. 0. Robertsasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether, seeing that the existing term of the Legislative Assembly in Trindad expires this month with a new five-year term beginning in February, he will consider the advisability of extending the present term by one year to afford time for representations regarding constitutional changes to be considered?
§ Mr. Ormsby-GoreI have not received from the colony any representations in favour of an extension of the term of the Legislative Council. The forthcoming elections will themselves afford an opportunity of ventilating the question of constitutional changes, if there is any general desire for this.
