§ Mr. CONANTasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he is aware that the roads in the neighbourhood of Nkana, in Northern Rhodesia, are in such a bad state that settlers have difficulty in getting their produce to market; and whether he will see that immediate steps are taken to put the roads in repair?
§ Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTERThe improvement of the road system of Northern Rhodesia is a subject to which the Government of the territory have recently been giving serious attention. The Governor now has under consideration a scheme for the reconstruction of trunk roads in the territory, and also of the roads connecting the important towns in the mining district in the neighbourhood of Nkana and Ndola.
