HC Deb 13 February 1957 vol 564 cc180-1W
72. Mr. J. Johnson

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies when he intends to issue a White Paper upon proposed constitutional change in the North Rhodesian Protectorate.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

As will be clear from the statement which I made on 6th February in reply to a Question by the hon. Member, I have yet to receive proposals from the Governor of Northern Rhodesia after local consultations still to take place. It is certainly too early to say whether and, if so when, it will be appropriate to publish a White Paper on this subject.
