HC Deb 07 November 1945 vol 415 cc1411-2W
Mr. Thomas Reid

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies who is bearing the cost of the forces kept in Palestine to repress disorders and the cost of compensating persons who suffer loss from the disorders.

Mr. George Hall

The cost of the police force in Palestine is in the first instance a charge on the revenues of the Government of Palestine. The cost of any military forces which may be in Palestine falls upon His Majesty's Government. As is necessary in the interests of peace and good order in Uganda and that if it is not taken the whole political structure of the Buganda State, as well as its peace and prosperity will be most seriously threatened.
