HC Deb 21 December 1961 vol 651 c186W
Lady Gammans

asked the Lord Privy Seal what arrangements are being made for the payment to West Cameroon of the £575,000 already promised by Her Majesty's Government.

Mr. P. Thomas

Arrangements are being made for the whole of this money to be paid over to the West Cameroon authorities as soon as possible. Provision for the £575,000 will be made in a Supplementary Estimate to be laid before Parliament in due course. Meanwhile, an advance of this sum will be made from the Civil Contingencies Fund.
