HC Deb 26 May 1949 vol 465 c116W
Mr. Gammans

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he will make a statement on the proposal for the Government to take over St. Kitts sugar factory.

Mr. Creech Jones

The future of the St. Kitts sugar factory was one of the questions considered by the recent Commission of Inquiry into the St. Kitts sugar industry. The Commissioner has now reported to the Governor. The report is about to be printed and published. Meantime it will receive the consideration of the Governor of the Leeward Islands and myself.
