HC Deb 11 February 1964 vol 689 c27W
3. Mr. Awbery

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies in view of the importance of the judgment delivered by Her Majesty's Court of Appeal in Malta in the Human Rights case, dealing with freedom of conscience and expression under the constitution, if he will place a copy in the Library of the House; what steps are being taken to prevent a recurrence of the offence and preserve human rights on British democratic principles in the new constitution of the island; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Sandys

A copy of the judgment will be placed in the Library as soon as an English translation is available. With regard to the other parts of the Question, I would refer the hon. Member to my Answer to Question No. 9.
