HC Deb 11 October 1944 vol 403 c1743
37. Colonel Lyons

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what requests he has received for the gradual transference over a period of years of Government offices from Entebbe to Kampala on the grounds of public convenience and economy; whether such recommendations have been endorsed by the Governor; and whether he will give this matter favourable consideration when examining the Colony's programme and plans for postwar development.

Colonel Stanley

The transfer of the Government offices to Kampala has been suggested by non-official bodies, but no official proposal has yet been received from the Governor, though I am aware that it has been engaging his attention. It is stated in the Uganda report on Post-War Development, which I recently placed in the Library, that the provision of new central offices might well find a place in a loan programme to be drawn up after the war.
