hon. Members to write direct to me or my Parliamentary Secretary on these cases. We shall, of course, always be pleased to deal with them ourselves.

ment for the Territory of Tanganyika, he will promote the interests of British export trade in the organisation of essential public services and works which may be undertaken in the territory.

Mr. Rees-Williams

Article 10 requires that any action taken thereunder shall be designed to promote the interests of the people of the Territory.
