HC Deb 03 December 1930 vol 245 c2208
35. Sir PHILIP RICHARDSON

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether, in view of the demand in Kenya that the publication of the report and the recommendations of the tribunal which decided adversely on the hydro-electric project known as the Maragua-Tana scheme, should be published without delay, he proposes to give instructions for the document to be issued?

Dr. SHIELS

My Noble Friend has been informed by the Acting Governor of Kenya that the request for publication has been withdrawn. A statement as to the action now contemplated in regard to the application of the East African Power and Lighting Company has now been made by the Acting Governor in the Legislative Council, and if the hon. Member wishes, I shall be glad to suply him with a copy of the statement.
