TOTAL BELOW EXPECTATIONS
BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT. .Received Feb. 20, 1.55 p.m. LONDON, Feb, 19.
The civiif service 'accounts for 1924-25 show how largely below the Overseas Settlement Department’s hope of actual migration was. The following are the respective' figures: Author- Exited. pended. £ £ I/and Settlement .... 107,000 4,000 Assisted passages ... 705,000 389,(XX) Settlement of migrants 25,000 20,000 Training migrants ... 27,500 6,750
In the ease of Australia it is explained that a large increase was expected, but migration decreased by 2700, and £264,237 available as loans was not required. New Zealand’s increase of expenditure (£5044) was not- as much as was expected. ,
