HC Deb 19 July 1950 vol 477 cc168-9W
66. Mr. Parker

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the announcement made by the Governor of British Honduras early in March that the setting up of a local development corporation was part of His Majesty's Government's policy for developing the Colony represents the present policy of the Government.

Mr. J. Griffiths

The Governor's announcement referred to a proposal for a local development corporation that he proposed to include in the long-term development plan for the Colony. This plan is still under consideration locally, and it would be premature for me to express any views on specific proposals contained in it.
