The publication of Annual Reports on Colonial Territories is being resumed in the new form to which I referred in my reply to my hon. Friend's Question on 30th October. Reports for the year 1946, which, I hope, will include brief reviews covering the period during which the issue of these Reports has been suspended, are being prepared by Colonial Governments, and will be published as soon as possible.
