HC Deb 01 August 1961 vol 645 cc146-7W
52. Mr. Dempsey

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he will arrange to bring up to date the colonial publications of 1948, 1949, 1950, and 1951, details of which have been notified to him.

Mr. H. Fraser

The publications referred to are five introductory booklets on groups of Territories which were dependent at the date of publication, and two general booklets on Colonial Territories which were issued as part of a Publicity campaign launched in 1948. These publications were last reissued in 1955–56 It would be inappropriate now to publish revised editions when so many of the Territories with which they deal have become independent or are about to do so.
