The following statement which was made in the House of Commons on the 14th November, 1951, by the Right Honourable the Secretary of State for the Colonies is published for general information:- "Certain broad lines of policy are accepted by all sections of the House as being above party politics. These have been clearly stated by my pre- decessors from both main parties. Two of them are fundamental. First, we all aim at helping Colonial Terri- tories to attain self-government with- in the British Commonwealth. To that end we are seeking, as rapidly as possible, to build up in each territory the institutions which its circum- stances require. Secondly, we are all determined to pursue the economic and social development of Colonial Territories so that it may keep pace with their political development. I should like to make it plain at the outset that His Majesty's Government intends no change in these aims. We desire to see successful constitutional development both in those territories which are less advanced towards self- government, and in addition, those with more advanced constitutions. His Majesty's Government will do their utmost to help Colonial Govern- ments and Legislatures to foster the health, wealth, and happiness of Cololnial peoples.
