On the uniform strong consistency of an estimator of the offspring mean in a branching process with immigration

For the critical and sub-critical branching process with immigration, the natural estimator of the offspring mean 'm' is shown to be strongly consistent uniformly over a whole class of offspring distributions with m [epsilon] (0, 1] and bounded variance.
