HC Deb 14 March 1927 vol 203 c1625
28. Mr. RAMSDEN

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies when he expects to receive the Reports of the experts who are investigating the question of railway construction in East Africa?

Mr. AMERY

I assume that the hon. Member refers to the three experts visiting Nyasaland at the present Time. I hope to receive their Reports in about two months.

Mr. RAMSDEN

Will everything be done to expedite the forwarding of these Reports?

Mr. AMERY

I am as anxious as my hon. Friend.

Sir FREDRIC WISE

Will these Reports be made by the same individuals who reported on the Iraq railways?

Mr. AMERY

One of them is the same. General Hammond has been reporting on both, but the other members of the Commission reporting on East Africa are not the same.
