HC Deb 10 April 1928 vol 162 c1059
31. Colonel WEDGWOOD

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether any and, if so, what steps are being taken to balance the Kenya Budget for the year 1923–24?

Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

The Estimates for 1923, as received from the Colony, showed a balance of £27,634 of revenue over expenditure. After allowing for certain adjustments on examination of the Estimates in the Colonial Office, the expected surplus is somewhat reduced, but it is not likely to fall much below £20,000.
