§ 92. Mr. Skinnardasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies how large is the extension to the Lake Edward Game Reserve in Uganda; whether he is satisfied that precautions are taken to prevent animals straying outside the Reserve; and whether he will give an assurance that the interests of agriculture will not be sacrificed to those of tourists.
§ Mr. Rees-WilliamsThe extension to this Reserve is approximately 295 square miles. The Uganda Government is satisfied that adequate precautions are taken to prevent animals straying outside the Reserve. Since the extension is in a sleeping sickness area, no question arises of any sacrifice of agricultural interests.
