HC Deb 29 January 1941 vol 368 c569W
Mr. Riley

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the Legislative Council of Jamaica has recently adopted a resolution in favour of a new constitution of the Legislative Council; and whether he can inform the House of the nature of the new constitution, and if the Government has confirmed the proposed change.

Mr. George Hall

No information has been received as to the recent adoption by the Legislative Council of Jamaica of a resolution in favour of a new constitution of the Council. The question of whether the constitution of Jamaica is to be amended is among those to be discussed with the Governor during his stay in England.
