Members And Constituencies

Mr. Wall
asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies how many members will be returned to the next Maltese Parliament; how the constituencies will be divided as between Malta and Gozo; and how the constituency boundaries will be defined.

Mr. Iain Macleod
Provision has been made for the election of fifty members to the new Maltese Assembly. The number of electoral districts and their delimitation will be determined by local legislation.
