HC Deb 22 April 1929 vol 227 cc633-4W
Sir R. THOMAS

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he will make a statement regarding the situation created by the influx into Uganda of great numbers of famine-stricken natives from the Belgian mandated territory of Ruanda; whether the Government were taking any action in so far as Uganda is affected; and what degree of co-operation is there with the Belgian authorities in coping with the situation?

Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

My right hon. Friend has not yet received any Report from the Governor. He is, however, asking by telegraph for an early Report by despatch on the situation.
