HC Deb 23 February 1960 vol 618 cc36-7W
72. Mr. Wall

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he will now make a statement on the Kenya Constitutional Conference.

Mr. Iain Macleod

The discussion on safeguards and other matters, to which I referred in my reply to my hon. Friend on 16th February, was concluded on Sunday, and the Conference ended after I had given Her Majesty's Government's views on these subjects. These views will be included in the report of the Conference which I hope to be able to lay before Parliament on Thursday. All groups, except the United Party, told me that they accepted my proposals on the Executive and Legislature for the next stage of Kenya's constitutional advance.
