§ Mr. J. Johnsonasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he is aware that the housing being built for Africans at Nakuru, Kenya, this year, includes 500 rooms for 1,500 single men, and 22 two-roomed houses; and whether he will advise the Kenya Government that the proportion of family houses for African workers should be increased.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydNo. The Nakuru African housing scheme during the current financial year is to complete 272 single rooms, each capable of housing three single men, and 22 two-roomed houses. The single rooms can easily be-converted into two-room family dwellings if required, and a scheme for a further 92 family dwellings is under consideration. The provision of family accommodation is therefore not being neglected.
