§ MR. BARTLEY (Islington, N.)I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade whether there is any intention of at once increasing the power of the light on The Smalls, as has been so often urged by Masters of the Mercantile Marine?
THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF TRADE (Mr. MUNDELEA,) Sheffield, BrightsideI am informed by the Trinity House that 18 months ago the power of the light at The Smalls was increased more than 20 per cent., and that there is no necessity for making a further increase.
