Processing Of Oil Seeds (Report)

2.

Mrs. White
asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what action has been taken on the Gardiner Report on the processing of oilseeds in Nigeria.

Mr. J. Foster
The Nigerian Government have distributed it to the authorities and organisations concerned for study and comment.

Mrs. White
Can the hon. and learned Gentleman give us any idea when we are likely to have a statement of policy on this matter? There is considerable concern over the economic situation in parts of Nigeria.

Mr. Foster
No, that will be a matter for the Nigerian Government.
