HC Deb 15 July 1907 vol 178 c317
Major ANSTRUTHER - GRAY

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for "War whether he is aware that owing to the condition of the public funds at St. Helena there is now no money available for the repair of the roads which are, or may be, required for strategical purposes; and whether he proposes to take any action in the matter.

MR. HALDANE

It does not appear probable that the roads in St. Helena will be required for strategic purposes.

MAJOR ANSTRUTHER-GRAY

Then are they to be allowed to fall into disrepair?

MR. HALDANE

That is a matter for the local authorities.

MAJOR ANSTRUTHER-GRAY

They have no money.
