HC Deb 01 November 1944 vol 404 c804W
Mr. Sorensen

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what funds have been approved, and what spent, in respect of development schemes in Tanganyika under the Colonial Development and Welfare Act.

Colonel Stanley

Grants made to Tanganyika under the Colonial Development and Welfare Act of 1940 total £242,448, of which £120,820 has been expended to date. I will send my hon. Friend a schedule showing the various schemes for which grants have been approved. The main programme for post-war development is still under consideration.
