HC Deb 12 March 1952 vol 497 c136W
20. Mr. Wyatt

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies why many resettled squatters in Malaya have not been granted permanent title to their land.

Mr. Lyttelton

All State and Settlement Governments have now agreed to grant permanent titles to land in resettlement areas. The issue of titles entails much detailed work in land offices. The Governments concerned are being urged to record approved applications without delay.
