HC Deb 27 January 1949 vol 460 c180W
Mr. Piratin

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what is the main purpose of the pig and poultry project in the Gambia of the Colonial Development Corporation; and whether he will ensure that it is made to contribute to the raising of the standards of life of the native population.
