HC Deb 29 January 1947 vol 432 c213W
111. Mr. Rees-Williams

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he will make a statement on the rehabilitation scheme for Sarawak recently referred to by His Excellency the Governor.

Mr. Creech Jones

Proposals for the economic and social development of Sarawak over the next few years have been drawn up, but as they are not yet in their final form and I have not yet had the Governor's views on them, I regret that I am not at present in a position to make a detailed statement. I will gladly do so at the first opportunity.
