59. Mr. BROWN

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what is the aggregate expenditure in Tanganyika for the years 1918–19 to 1923–24, inclusive, ordinary, extraordinary, and capital; and the revenue for the same period?

Mr. LUNN

The totals for the six years mentioned are: Expenditure, £8,118,348; Revenue, £5,542,101. The actual figures for 1923–24 have not yet been received, but the estimates for that year have been adopted in these totals.

Mr. BECKER

Does the hon. Gentleman hope to get a report about this harbour in the near future?

Mr. J. JONES

Will the hon. Gentleman consider how to get rid of some of these pensioners who are living upon the exploitation of the Colony?
