HC Deb 21 November 1927 vol 210 c1407
59. Mr. ROY WILSON

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies when the new harbour at Takoradi, Gold Coast, will be complete; whether there is to be any formal opening; and, if so, when and by whom?

Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

It is anticipated that the construction of Takoradi harbour will be substantially completed in the course of March, 1928, and it is proposed that the ceremonial opening should take place at about the end of that month. The late Secretary of State for the Colonies, the right hon. Member for Derby, will take the principal part in this ceremony.
