§ 122. Mr. Orbachasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what decision has been reached by the Sierra Leone 177W Government on proposals to construct airfields at Kambia and Moyamba and to survey the airfields at Hastings, Port Loko, Bo, and Majburaka, with a view to reconstruction.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydIt is not proposed to construct airfields at Kambia or Moyamba, but the existing airstrip for light aircraft at Kambia is being cleared, while at Moyamba a possible site for a similar airstrip is under negotiation. The possibility of re-surfacing the runway at Hastings is being investigated, and at Bo extensions to the airstrip are proceeding. The existing airstrip at Magburaka is being cleared, and it is hoped that the same will be done at Port Loko.
