HC Deb 23 October 1946 vol 427 c381W
110. Mr. W. Fletcher

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies when he expects to be in a position to make an announcement on the economic situation in Malaya.

Mr. Creech Jones

My predecessor gave the House a summary of the economic situation in Malaya on 25th July. When the situation which he then described has so changed as to warrant a further statement I will certainly consider the question of making one.
