HC Deb 05 July 1944 vol 401 c1147
34. Mr. Riley

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he can state the approximate amount spent per annum by the Governments of Kenya, Tanganyika and Northern Rhodesia, respectively, on public education, giving in each Colony the amount spent per head on white settlers' children and African children, respectively.

Colonel Stanley

Provision has been made, in the 1944 Estimates, for expenditure of £300,000, £181,000, and £200,000 by the respective Governments. In addition, the native administrations make contributions towards African education. I regret that the information immediately available is not sufficient to enable me to give a complete answer to the second part of the Question, but I will obtain details and communicate them to my hon. Friend.
