Part of the debate – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 14 December 1949.
Mr. Enroll:
asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the speech made by the Governor of Kenya at the annual dinner of the East African Association of Engineers in Nairobi on 3rd November, 1949, represents the policy of His Majesty's Government in regard to road construction in Kenya.
Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
