19. Mr. Peter Smithers

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies how far, in developing British Honduras, he proposes to give priority to settling in agricultural occupations those people who already live in the Colony.

The British Honduras Government, as they have already announced, will give local people the first chance of jobs in new agricultural projects.
