HC Deb 24 July 1962 vol 663 c132W
39. Mr. Turton

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether, in the scheme for the purchase of land for African land settlement in Kenya, special provision is being made in respect of land owned by Agricultural Settlement Trust farmers, who purchased their holdings under the schemes approved by Her Majesty's Government and the Kenya Government and organised by the European Agricultural Settlement Board.

Mr. Fisher

My right hon. Friend is awaiting detailed proposals for extended land settlement from the Kenya Government in accordance with the statement made by his predecessor in Kenya on 10th July. Until they have been received and considered I cannot say how much land occupied by the Agricultural Settlement Trust farmers will be included.
