HC Deb 14 November 1934 vol 293 c1977W
Mr. D. GRENFELL

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether be has considered the memorandum urging the imposition of a tax on undeveloped farm lands in Kenya, which was submitted by the Rongai Valley Association to the economic development committee in Nairobi; and whether His Majesty's Government in Kenya Colony will give favourable consideration to this proposal?

Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTER

I have not received a copy of the memorandum in question. If its proposals are embodied in the report of the Economic Development Committee, I have no doubt that the Governor will give them careful consideration.
