HC Deb 08 March 1933 vol 275 c1159
11. Mr. LUNN

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what action he proposes to take as the result of Mr. Roger Gibbs's Report on railway rates and finance in East Africa?

Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTER

The Report is being considered by the Conference of East African Governors, which met at Entebbe on the 20th of February. I propose to await an expression of opinion from that Conference before taking any further action on it.

Mr. LUNN

When does the right hon. Gentleman expect to have the report; and will it be published?

Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTER

I could not publish a report from the Governors' Conference; that would, naturally, be a confidential report to me in the ordinary course.
