§ Mr. J. HUDSONasked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the Governor of Kenya had His Majesty's Government's authority for his statement of the necessity to set up a central authority to deal with certain common problems affecting the railways of Kenya, Uganda and Tanganyika; and, if so, in view of the fact that this matter is included within the terms of reference of the East African Commission, why this authorisation was given?
§ Mr. ORMSBY-GOREThe Governor was expressing his own views on this subject, and the question of authority from His Majesty's Government did not arise.
