HC Deb 23 February 1956 vol 549 cc67-8W
Mr. J. Johnson

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies when his senior educational adviser will be visiting the Somaliland Protectorate.

Mr. Hare

Plans are being made with the Governor for the visit to take place as early as possible. The Protectorate Government is collecting information which my educational adviser needs to study before his visit; and his other important commitments have also to be considered. It may be necessary to send another adviser at an earlier date, but the wishes of the Somali leaders will be sought before such a decision is made.
