HC Deb 27 April 1931 vol 251 c1375
67. Mr. DAY

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he is now in a position to make any further statement with reference to the co-ordination of the railway companies which will control the traffic using the Zambesi bridge?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for the COLONIES (Dr. Drummond Shiels)

A detailed account of the arrangements for the co-ordination of the railway companies concerned would involve too long a statement. I must refer my hon. Friend to the conditional agreements of 15th May, 1930, between the Crown Agents for the Colonies and the Central Africa and Shire Highlands Railway Companies and the Trans-Zambesia Railway Company respectively, copies of which were placed in the Library last November. These agreements are not now conditional, but there are certain matters still outstanding.
