HC Deb 26 January 1949 vol 460 c141W
110. Mr. Skinnard

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what action has been taken as a result of the resolution of 12th January, 1948, passed by the Legislative Council of St. Christopher Nevis, demanding the introduction of adult suffrage, a fully elective Legislative Council and the abolition of property qualifications for membership of that body.

Mr. Creech Jones

I am in communication with the Governor, and I hope to be able to make an announcement when I receive his reply.
