HC Deb 27 July 1949 vol 467 cc134-5W
68. Mr. Skinnard

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies by whose authority the newspaper "L'Oeuvre," published in the Colony of Mauritius, was forced to suspend publication last year; for how long it was suppressed; and for what reasons.

Mr. Rees-Williams

Publication was suspended by an order of the court. For further information I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given to the hon. Member for Finsbury (Mr. Platts-Mills) on 16th February.
