HC Deb 09 June 1964 vol 696 c44W
36. Mr. Jeger

asked the Secretary of State for Commonwealth Relations and the Colonies what steps have been taken to recover the payments of 3,363,000 West Indian dollars to the contractor on the Parika-Bartica road in British Guiana, although the value of the work done was only 756,000 West Indian dollars.

Mr. Sandys

This is the constitutional responsibility of the British Guiana Government which is still engaged in negotiations with the contractors.
