88. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he has any further statement to make respecting a prospective new constitution for Nigeria.

Mr. Griffiths

The recommendations of the Ibadan General Constitutional Conference are at present under consideration by the Nigeria Legislative Council. I expect to receive quite soon the recommendations of the Council and the Governor's advice upon them. It would therefore be premature to make any further statement at present.
