HC Deb 29 August 1895 vol 36 c1139
MR. J. M. MACLEAN (Cardiff)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, whether, as the Cardiff merchants and shipowners are willing to guarantee the rent of a temporary building at the docks during the construction of the new Custom House, the Board of Customs will now grant the same powers for the transaction of business at the Cardiff Docks as are enjoyed at the neighbouring Barry Docks?

MR. HANBURY

The Board of Customs have not yet received any definite offer from the local bodies, and they do not know whether the latter have any special premises to suggest. Any definite application to this effect will receive the immediate and favourable attention of the Board.
