HC Deb 24 July 1962 vol 663 cc138-9W
Mr. Wall

asked the Secretary for Technical Co-operation how many British expatriate civil servants were serving in Ghana, Nigeria and Sierra Leone at the time of those countries' independence; and how many are now serving in each of those countries.

Mr. Vosper

Since these officers are not employed by the British Government exact figures axe not available to me. The information below is the best available of the numbers of pensionable expatriate officers. I have no firm figures of contract officers.

— Number serving on independence Number now serving
Ghana … 580 30
Nigeria
Federation … 870 555
North … 900 640
East … 105 90
West … 135 110
Sierra Leone … 250 115
