Possibility Of Link
And Tokelaus
A party of representatives from the Tokelaus was due in Rarotonga in August to discuss problems that could arise out of a possible political asso ciation of their islands with the Cook Islands. The idea of such an asso ciation was raised in the Cook Is lands Legislative Assembly three years ago, but little has been heard of it since.
At present, the Tokelaus are ad ministered by New Zealand through that country's High Commissioner in Western Samoa, Mr. J. B. Wright.
Mr. Wright was also due to visit Rarotonga in August to hear the Legislative Assembly debate on the Constitution Act, which will be the keystone of Cook Islands law after the territory attains internal self government next year.
Mr. Wright is one of three experts who advised on constitutional de velopment in the Cooks last year.
