HC Deb 14 July 1954 vol 530 cc36-7W
85. Mr. D. Jones

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies when he estimates that the Government of Jamaica will pass the Land Use Bill; what it is intended shall be the constitution of the tribunals to be set up under the Act; and what steps he proposes to take to ensure that the members are completely impartial.

Mr. D. Jones

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what plans are under consideration to ensure that the best use is made of the land in Jamaica available to the tenants under the Land Use Bill, and to prevent over production of any particular crop.

Mr. Lyttelton

The Jamaica Government have not yet decided the form in which a Land Use Bill should be submitted to the Legislature. I am sure that they will have very much in mind the importance of impartiality in the members of any tribunals which may be set up.
