HC Deb 21 November 1927 vol 210 c1405
55. Mr. RAMSDEN

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies the number of students now attending the Imperial College of Tropical Agriculture; and whether the hostel is now ready for their use?

Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

The number of students now in residence is 43. The Milner Hostel was formerly opened on 10th October, the date of commencement of this academic year, and I understand that the arrangements are proving in every respect satisfactory.
