HC Deb 02 July 1959 vol 608 c65W
54. Mr. W. R. Williams

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the former porter in the medical department, British Guiana, whose name was supplied to him by the hon. Member for Openshaw, was informed in writing of a new charge to be preferred against him and given an opportunity either personally or through his trade union to reply to the charge and to advance reasons why he should not be dismissed.
