Colonel Ponsonby
asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what is the capacity of the port of Dar-es-Salaam; and to what extent this has been reached in the last six months.
Mr. Rees-Williams
The present capacity of the Port of Dar-es-Salaam is estimated at 20,000 freight tons of imports (excluding coal and wheeled vehicles) and 13,000 freight tons of exports per month. The Governor reports that this capacity was reached in July and October this year.
