As a result of the report of the Select Committee appointed in 1920 to consider whether any changes were desirable in the constitution of the council, it has been decided to enlarge it to include 27 members in all, of whom in addition to the Governor, 13 will be Officials and 13 Unofficials. When the instructions have been amended, the ex-officio members will consist of the present's ex-officio mem- bers, with the addition of the Resident Councillor, Malacca, the Director of Education, the Secretary for Chinese Alain. the Principal Civil Medical Officer, and the Commissioner of Lands, Two other official members will be ap pointed by namé.

As regards the Unofficials, Singapore, | 80. Penang, and Malacca will have the same. The detailed scores of the second number of European members as at pre-innings, were as follows:- sont There will be three Chinese mem- bers and wherever possible, tae will be a resident of Singapore, one of Penang and one of either Singapore "or Molacca, There will also be one 'representative of the Malay rice, one of the Eurasian com- munity and one of the British Indians resident in the Colony. All the appoint- ments of the Unofficials will be made by the Governor in pursuance of instruc tipas from His Majesty the King through the Secretary of State, except as re- gards representatives of the Chambers of Commerce, Singapore and Panang, to which bodies an absolute right of election will be given, the actual appointment of such members being made by an Instru- ment in the usual form. The Chambers of Commerce bave been requested to draw up rules governing the procedure · of these elections. It will be laid down that the membar alected must be a British. Subject and that only British members of the Chambers will be entitled to vote. The term of office for Unofficial Members will be as a rule three years.

The committee suggested that Un- officiale should have an opportunity of speaking on the adjournment. I believe that they always had that right; and since the committee called attention to the matter, the practice of speaking on

I may also mention that the approvat of the 'Secretary of State has been given to the proposal to appoint 2 Undificial Membere to the Executive Council. These members will not necessarily be members of the Legislative Council as it is thought right that there should be as wide, a field of selection as possible. I am aware that these modifications of the constitution of the Council do hot go so far na some people wish. But they un- doubtedly represent an advance, in the constitutional development of the Colony, sid, as wach, I hope they will be wel- comed by the community.
