HC Deb 11 May 1948 vol 450 c206W
Mr. Skinnard

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if the debate on constitutional reform has yet taken place in the Trinidad Legislative Council; what were the decisions reached; and whether he is aware that in spite of the Majority Report of the Committee there is a strong feeling in Trinidad for a large measure of responsible government.

Mr. Rees-Williams

The Legislative Council of Trinidad have adopted the Majority Report of the Constitution Reform Committee with certain amendments and I am awaiting a full account of the debate and the Governor's comments thereon.
