§ 21. Mr. Wallasked the Minister of Overseas Development what agreement has been reached with the Kenya Government over the definition of current market value as applying to the 400,000 acre re-settlement scheme in Kenya.
§ Mr. OramThe Kenya Government have agreed that, so far as purchases by the Agricultural Development Corporation are concerned, and also purchases for the settlement programme, valuations should continue to be based on the comparative method.
§ Mr. WallWhile thanking the hon. Gentleman for that reply, may I ask whether he can confirm that, given the continuance of reasonable valuation, Her Majesty's Government have contributed enough to the land resettlement scheme to enable it to continue for its full four years originally envisaged?
