HC Deb 14 November 1927 vol 210 cc616-7
27. Sir JOHN POWER

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies what progress is being made with railway development in British East Africa?

Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

So far as Kenya and Uganda are concerned, I have nothing to add to the statement accompanying the Estimates for Colonel Services 1927 on page 9 of Cmd. 2906. In Tanganyika work has begun on the Arusha extension, and I hope that the Mwanza line will be opened during the first quarter of next year.
