HC Deb 06 May 1953 vol 515 c24W
23. Mr. Beswick

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what consultation he had, and how far he achieved agreement with the Committee of the Kilimanjaro Native Co-operate Union before drafting the African Produce (Chagga Council) Cess Order, 1953.

Mr. Lyttelton

None. This is a matter for the Tanganyika Government and I am not aware whether there were any local consultations. I am asking the Governor for information on that and will circulate it in the OFFICIAL REPORT.

24. Mr. Beswick

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what crops or livestock produced in Tanganyika, other than coffee, are liable to a cess or tax similar to that levied by the African Produce (Chagga Council) Cess Order, 1953.

Mr. Lyttelton

This information is not available in the Colonial Office. I have asked the Governor for it and will circulate it in the OFFICIAL REPORT.
