Abstract
The present White Paper must be viewed against the background of the negotiations that preceded
the granting of the existing Gold Coast Constitution, for in the Government's proposals for Constitutional
Reform, 1953, which formed the basis of the negotiations, the Gold Coast Government made it clear that its
proposals were only in respect of the limited transitional period which was necessary in order that the requisite
constitutional and administrative arrangements for Independence· could be made. In the opinion of the
Government, the Gold Coast is now at the end of this limited transitional period.
