HC Deb 31 October 1956 vol 558 c148W
Mr. Fenner Brockway

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he will make a statement on the negotiations between Her Majesty's Government and the Government of Malta, regarding financial assistance.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

Discussions were held in London with the Maltese Prime Minister between 22nd and 24th October about the provision of United Kingdom aid for the current Maltese budget. The discussions were facilitated by certain interim recommendations of the Economic Commission, which is now preparing a report relating to the current financial year. I hope to be able to make a full statement shortly.
