§ 26. Mr. Errollasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he will make a statement on the programme for road construction in Kenya for the next 10 years.
Mr. Creech JonesThe Kenya Government is considering recommendations by a special road committee that there should be a £9 million road programme during 1951–1962 and a road authority to lay 1131 down policy and priorities. Meanwhile, a considerable road programme is already in hand and this will continue during 1950.
§ Mr. ErrollIs there any danger of this programme being slowed down as a result of the personal views of the Governor of the Colony?
Mr. Creech JonesNo, Sir; the programme is under constant view, but there is no intention to slow it down.
