HC Deb 29 April 1941 vol 371 c349
44. Lieut.-Colonel Sir Thomas Moore

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether steps are being taken to make the natives in West Africa familiar with the excellent work of the Gold Coast Regiment in East Africa?

The Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies (Mr. George Hall)

The excellent work of the Gold Coast Regiment in East Africa is being given the widest possible publicity throughout the Gold Coast by means of broadcasting in English and several local languages, by newspapers, by pamphlets issued by the Gold Coast Department of Information, by addresses given by administrative officers, by photographs displayed in the principal centres of population and by a film of Gold Coast troops in action. Similar publicity is being given to the activities of Nigerian troops.
