HC Deb 29 June 1962 vol 661 c175W
Mr. G. M. Thomson

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department (Central African Office) how many African homes have now been provided in Nyasaland by the Colonial Development Corporation; and what plans there are for the expansion of this programme.

Mr. R. A. Butler

1,328 houses have so far been built from the Colonial Development Corporation loan of £1 million and about 250 more will be built during 1962–63. This will exhaust the loan. Plans for further housing now under consideration are dependent upon the availability of additional finance.
