§ Mr. J. Johnsonasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies how many African farmers in Northern Rhodesia are growing Virginia flue-cured tobacco; and the acreage cultivated, and the total value of the tobacco marketed.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydSo far as I am aware flue-cured tobacco is still not grown by Africans in Northern Rhodesia, but I am asking the Governor whether there has been any change in the position since the replies given to the hon. Member for Bristol, South-East (Mr. Benn) on 8th March and 11th April, 1956, and will write to the hon. Member.
