HC Deb 19 October 1972 vol 843 c140W
Mr. Wall

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what acreage was transferred under the 1966–70 Kenya land transfer programme

Mr. Wood

The programme provided for up to 100,000 acres to be purchased annually during the four-year period. 300,539 acres were transferred, but there remains a balance of approximately £700,000 under the UK/Kenya Loan 1966–70. At the request of the Kenya Government, this is to be used to supplement the funds available for the present programme.
