§ Major Lyonsasked the Secretary of State for War what steps are being taken in British East Africa to utilise the services of European and non-European prisoners of war on road improvements and other public works?
§ Mr. SandysA few hundred Italian and native prisoners of war have already been at work on the roads in East Africa for some months in two small experimental camps. Arrangements are almost complete for the employment of a larger number in the near future. In addition, other labour schemes for prisoners of war are being experimented with on small scales and expanded where successful.
