§ Dr. SHIELSBoth the Kenya and Uganda Governments have for some years made annual grants to voluntary agencies (usually missions) for native medical training or for the maintenance of midwifery centres and midwives. There are, however, no figures available in the Colonial Office showing what proportion of the grants was spent for the specific purpose of training African women as midwives, but if the Noble Lady wishes, the Governors of Kenya, Uganda and Tanganyika will be asked whether they can supply the figures.
