61. Mr. Stonehouse

asked the Minister of Defence how much has been spent, and where, on military bases in Kenya; and what is the policy of Her Majesty's Government with regard to the future of such bases.

Mr. Watkinson

About £4 million will have been spent on capital works for the Services in Kenya between 1st July, 1957, and 31st March, 1961, mainly at Kahawa, Gilgil and Eastleigh. These facilities are based on the current assessment of defence needs.
