HC Deb 06 November 1946 vol 428 c264W
103. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he is aware that a committee has just reported favouring the development of European mixed farming in Northern Rhodesia and increased settlement there with Government encouragement; and whether he proposes to implement this policy.

Mr. Creech Jones

Yes, Sir. The recommendations in the report however have not yet been finally considered by the Government of Northern Rhodesia; and I am therefore not in a position to make a statement in regard to the second part of the Question.
