§ 24. Sir R. Robinsonasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what assistance in the development programme of 1159 British Honduras is being given by the Foreign Operations Administration of the United States of America.
§ Mr. HopkinsonThe Administration has agreed to provide technical assistance in the fields of agriculture, health, education, community development and such other fields as may be mutually agreed upon. The sum which the U.S. authorities expect to be able to spend, in the form of visits by experts and training courses, in the twelve months from July, 1955, is about $200,000. I should like to take this opportunity of recording the appreciation both of Her Majesty's Government and the Government of British Honduras of this assistance.
