Administrative Reports 1914-1961

Collection: Sierra Leone Under Colonial Rule, in Government Reports, 1893-1961    Volumes    Administrative Reports 1914-1961
The administrative boundaries within Sierra Leone underwent a number of radical alterations during the period covered by these administrative reports. Major revisions occured in 1920, 1924/25, 1929/30, 1935, and 1940-45. Consequently such administrative divisions as Kenema, Bombali and Moyamba refer to different areas at different times and readers are cautioned to bear this in mind. In 1945-46, constitutional amendments were enacted by the British to establish a Protectorate Assembly as a means of countering the political aspirations of the Colony's educated elite by enlisting the support of the more conservative provincial Chiefs and as part of a belated attempt to redress the political, economic, and developmental imbalance between the Colony and Protectorate. Commencing with district reports from 1914, these reports are then divided by administrative district as they extend from 1920 to 1961. Gaps in the sequence are identified in the document level descriptions.
