HC Deb 17 November 1959 vol 613 c113W
89. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what further progress has been made in the federation of the Aden Protectorate; and to what extent the frontier is now free of incidents.

Mr. J. Amery

With the warm approval of Her Majesty's Government, Lahej has recently become the seventh member state of the Federation.

Meanwhile, progress is being made with building up the administration and the Federal National Guard.

For many weeks now the frontier has been almost free from incidents.
