HC Deb 12 June 1928 vol 218 c779
42. Mr. RENNIE SMITH

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what number of Indian children of school age in Kenya are receiving some education, and what number are without facilities for education?

The SECRETARY of STATE for the COLONIES (Mr. Amery)

I regret that I am not in a position to give the figures, but I have already arranged with the Governor of Kenya for the inclusion in future of detailed statistics in the annual reports of the Education Department.

43. Mr. SMITH

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the four new posts of inspectorships created in 1926 in connection with education in Kenya have been filled?

Mr. AMERY

Yes, Sir. I may add that provision for a fifth appointment of this nature has been made in the Estimates for the current year, and that steps are being taken to select a candidate to fill it.
