§ 31. Mr. John Hyndasked the Secretary of State for Colonies by what methods maize is purchased from growers in Tanganyika; why it is resold to Africans at a higher price than they receive for selling it to storage; what portion of the price is put to any special fund; and for what purposes and to what extent that fund is utilised.
Mr. DugdaleMy right hon. Friend is asking the Governor about this and will write to my hon. Friend as soon as the reply is received.
§ Mr. HyndDo I understand that my right hon. Friend has no information as to whether a fund exists from which subsidies are made in this case as in other Colonies? Is it necessary, in all these questions, that the Minister must wait until the Governor has been communicated with?
