HC Deb 20 July 1939 vol 350 c759W
Mr. de Rothschild

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies how many petitions in favour of reform of the machinery of government in Cyprus have been received by the administration in the past two months; what was the number of signatories to these petitions; and what action was taken upon them?

Mr. M. MacDonald

It will be necessary to obtain this information from the Government of Cyprus and I have asked the Acting-Governor for a report.
