HC Deb 07 April 1930 vol 237 c1788W
Mr. DAY

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether there are at present any self-contained survey parties at work in Nigeria, Northern Rhodesia, and Somaliland; and can he give particulars of any other colonies or protectorates where survey parties are at present employed for topographical and trigonometrical work?

Dr. SHIELS

Apart from Boundary Commissions and the ordinary activities of Government Survey Departments (a list of which was included in the reply given by my Noble Friend's predecessor to Sir R. Thomas on 4th March, 1929), special survey parties are at work in the following dependencies: Nigeria, Gold Coast, and Johore.
