World Bank loans, estimated to total £15 million, are expected to be made shortly to Central and East Africa.. And a mission from the Bank will shortly be visiting West Africa with a view to future loan opera- tions.

The Colonial Secretary has emphasised that World Bank loans are likely

development schemes because of the inability of the London capital market to supply all their needs.
