HC Deb 05 July 1950 vol 477 cc23-4W
62. Mr. Alport

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies how many African women hold executive appointments in the Government service of the East and Central African Colonies; how many have professional qualifications and in which professions; and how many African women nurses at present exist.

Mr. J. Griffiths

Detailed information on all these points is not available in the Colonial Office but I will ask the Colonial Governments concerned to supply it and will communicate with the hon. Gentleman as soon as it has been received.
