HC Deb 26 November 1947 vol 444 cc1968-9
19. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies, approximately, how many trained African nurses and doctors, respectively, and how many nursing trainees are working in West African Colonies at the present time.

Mr. Creech Jones

I have asked the West African Governments for this information and will communicate with my hon. Friend when I receive it.

Mr. Sorensen

Will that include some comparison between now and previous years, and also prospective possibilities?

Mr. Creech Jones

I will see if that can be done.
