§ Mr. J. Johnsonasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what amount of moneys from colonial development and welfare funds have been spent upon extra-mural work in East Africa by Makerere University College in the years 1956 and 1957, respectively; and what are the plans to expand this work, particularly with regard to establishing extra-mural studies in Tanganyika.
§ Mr. Lennox-Boyd, pursuant to his reply [OFFICIAL REPORT, 13th May, 1958; Vol. 588, c. 13], provided the following further information:
The Governments of Uganda and Kenya have discussed with the Makerere College authorities proposals for the extension of extra-mural work in their respective territories, but because of financial stringency at the present time no detailed plans have been made. For the same reason the Tanganyika Government are unable to ask the College to extend its extra-mural activities to the territory.
