HC Deb 01 June 1965 vol 713 cc177-8W
28. Mr. Chapman

asked the Minister of Overseas Development what requests she has received in the last six months from the Colony of Dominica for special help; and what she has provided.

Mrs. Castle

I have had six requests for development aid from Colonial Development and Welfare funds of which five have been put in hand and one we are looking at urgently. The most notable is for road building. Of five requests received for technical assistance, four are already in hand, including provision of the geologist in which my hon. Friend is interested and a survey for a new jetty at Portsmouth.
