HC Deb 07 March 1961 vol 636 cc28-9W
88. Mr. Awbery

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what restrictions are in operation in Malta with regard to the holding of mass meetings and demonstrations; and if he will revise them in so far as they affect the Maltese Labour Party.

Mr. Iain Macleod

The holding of mass meetings and demonstrations in Malta is governed by the provisions of the Public Meetings Ordinance, 1931. These must apply without discrimination to all political parties or others wishing to hold public meetings.
