HC Deb 22 April 1964 vol 693 c189W
Mr. Bottomley

asked the Secretary of State for Commonwealth Relations and the Colonies what terms of reference have been given to the team of observers who are to report on the Malta referendum; and, in particular, whether they have been asked to report on the campaign leading up to the referendum as well as on the mechanics of voting.

Mr. Sandys

The observers have been asked to report to me on whether the referendum is held under conditions which are fair and free. This of course covers the campaign leading up to the referendum as well as its conduct.
