§ Captain Kerbyasked the Secretary of State for Commonwealth Relations and the Colonies how much money has been loaned or granted as a free gift by Her Majesty's Government to the Government of Kenya in the last five years; and what conditions are attached to the latest £50 millions aid just announced.
§ Mr. SandysDuring the five years up to the 31st March, 1964, the British Government made loans and grants totalling £57 million to the Government of Kenya. Gifts amounted to £31 million and loans to £26 million.
Except for the budgetary aid of £1¼ million which will be a free gift, all the further aid announced on 3rd June is to be used for specific purposes agreed with the Kenya Government. The only condition to be attached is that imports required for agreed development purposes shall be purchased in Britain.
§ Captain Kerbyasked the Secretary of State for Commonwealth Relations and the Colonies to what extent he made it a condition of the recent grant of aid to 147W the Government of Kenya that none of the arms or aircraft to be supplied, or already supplied, by the United Kingdom may be used against other African countries, notably Southern Rhodesia.
§ Mr. SandysNo such condition was made.
