§ 22. Colonel HOWARD-BURYasked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether, seeing that the only school in Mombasa for Arabs was established in 1912, that Arabic is not taught in this school, and that the education for Arab children is inadequate in Kenya, he will take steps to see that this condition is remedied?
§ Dr. SHIELSThe question of Arab education in Kenya is already under consideration, by my Noble Friend and it is proposed to discuss it further with the Director of Education when he arrives in England on leave.
§ Colonel HOWARD-BURYWill the hon. Member take notice that education has been very backward and that something should be done to improve it?
§ Dr. SHIELSI may say that recently I had an interview with two Arab representatives from Kenya who are in this country in connection with the Joint Committee, and we went fully into questions of their special grievances, which are now being considered.
