Dr. Guestasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the scientific team investigating nutrition in Nyasaland has an expert on African agriculture as one of its members; and whether the standards of classification and of statistics are of such a kind as to enable the results to be directly compared with other results guided by the standards of the health organisation of the League of Nations?
Mr. M. MacDonaldThe answer to both parts of the question is in the affirmative. The team is making a detailed survey of three representative groups of the population, and it is hoped that the information obtained will be of great value to the African Colonial Dependencies.
