Part of Oral Answers to Questions — West Indies – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 12 March 1947.

Friend's suggestion, but after careful consideration I have reached the conclusion that at this juncture the interests of the workers in Trinidad will best be served by a visit from an experienced trades unionist for informal local conversations. After consultation with the Trades Union Congress, I have arranged for Mr. F. W. Dalley, lately assistant secretary of the Railway Clerks Association, to visit the colony for this purpose.
