HC Deb 27 February 1957 vol 565 c174W
79. Mr. Mason

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what progress has been made in reaching a decision to go ahead with the Volta River Project in Ghana; to what extent the British and Ghana Governments are committed; and what private companies are participating.

Mr. Profumo

The position remains as stated in my reply to the right hon. Member for Dearne Valley (Mr. Wilfred Paling) on 23rd January, and neither Governments nor private companies are committed.
