HC Deb 03 March 1948 vol 448 c64W
35. Mr. Rankin

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies how many Government dispensaries operate in the rural areas of Uganda; and what steps are being taken to establish rural medical facilities, so that minor indispositions may be given skilled attention before they can develop into serious cases.

Mr. Rees-Williams

One hundred and thirty-one, in addition to 140 aid posts. The Uganda Government intend progressively to increase and improve these rural medical facilities and provision has been made for this in the Protectorate Development Plan.
