HC Deb 17 April 1957 vol 568 c201W
Mr. Brockway

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what will be the total cost of the completion of the airport at Nairobi; and if the airport will be used exclusively for civilian purposes.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

It is now estimated that the new airport which is under construction at Embakasi near Nairobi will cost £2,433,000. It will be primarily a civil airport, but will be available for use by the R.A.F. if required.
