HC Deb 08 March 1926 vol 192 c1889
26. Sir F. WISE

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies the cost of the port of Kilindini?

Mr. AMERY

I understand the question to relate to the two deep-water berths which are now approaching construction. The latest estimate of cost (which covers a large amount of reclamation which will greatly reduce the cost of any future berths) is £1,320,957.

Colonel WEDGWOOD

Does that include the sum paid to Major Grogan for the pier?

Mr. AMERY

No, Sir. This is for the two deep-water berths, and is not connected with Major Grogan's wharf at Mbaraki.
