§ Commander Nobleasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what is the food situation in the British Solomon Islands; what relief supplies have had to be sent to any part of the islands; and whether, to the extent that the food shortage is due to devastation resulting from the war, he will arrange that the food is issued free.
Mr. Creech JonesI have received no information of a food shortage in the British Solomon Islands Protectorate. I am making inquiries and will write to the hon. and gallant Member later on.
