HC Deb 03 September 1886 vol 308 cc1186-7
SIR SAMUEL WILSON (Portsmouth)

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty, Whether the Lords of the Admiralty, on their approaching visit to Portsmouth, will consider the question of freeing the Haslar Bridge, which would be a boon to the relatives and friends of seamen and others in the Royal Navy, who are now required to pay toll in going to and returning from the Royal Naval Hospital?

THE FIRST LORD (Lord GEORGE HAMILTON) (Middlesex, Ealing)

We will consider the question of freeing Haslar Bridge during our inspection at Portsmouth; but as it will involve a considerable sum of money I am not sanguine that it can be done.
