HC Deb 23 November 1909 vol 13 cc14-5
Mr. REES

asked whether the extension of the Uganda Railway from Victoria Nyanza to Albert Nyanza had been sanctioned or was contemplated?

The UNDER-SECRETARY for the COLONIES (Colonel Seely)

The question of constructing a short line of railway from Jinja on the Victoria Nyanza to a place on the Nile some 40 miles below the Ripon Falls is under consideration, but it has not yet reached the stage at which a definite decision can be given in the matter. This is the only extension which is contemplated at present.
