§ 87. Mr. Parkerasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he will define the relationship between the Government of Uganda and the Uganda Electricity Board; and, in particular, what provision is made for African representation on the Electricity Board.
§ Mr. J. GriffithsThe Board is appointed by the Governor in Council and has statutory powers and duties which are defined in the Uganda Electricity Board Ordinance, 1947, of which I am sending a copy to my hon. Friend. Members are appointed for their personal qualifications for the work and not to represent particular interests. The second part of the Question, therefore, does not arise.
