HC Deb 01 August 1957 vol 574 cc240-1W
63. Mrs. White

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what steps are being taken to establish a co-operative credit and savings bank in Uganda.

Mr. Profumo

The establishment of a Co-operative Bank in Uganda is not contemplated at present. Credit is provided for co-operative societies and individuals through the Uganda Credit and Savings Bank and the African Loans Fund, as well as, to a small extent, to members of primary societies through their respective Co-operative Marketing Unions.
