95. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what is the present position of the proposals for a new constitution in Nigeria; and, approximately, when it is anticipated a new constitution and election will come into operation.

I cannot yet add to the reply given to my hon. Friend on 21st February, but will keep the House informed of any important developments. The answer to the second part of the Question is—during the latter half of this year.
