asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies, in view of the opinion expressed by the British Goodwill Mission to Cyprus, in paragraphs 211 and 212 of its report on its visit to Cyprus in the spring of 1946, that there is need for a well-organised supply of electricity for pumping water for irrigation and for the needs of light industries, what progress has been made with the plans that were then under consideration; and if an early decision may be expected in regard to the provision of the proposed central power station of a capacity of about 65,000 kilowatts.
