HC Deb 03 July 1899 vol 73 cc1278-9
MR. BRYCE (Aberdeen, S.)

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade if he will endeavour to obtain from the principal railway companies of Great Britain, and lay before Parliament in the form of a Return, a statement of the number of cycles carried by each of those companies during the year 1898, and of the annual sum of money received by them in respect of the carriage of such cycles.

MR. RITCHIE

I will communicate with the Railway Association, and see what can be done to meet the wishes of the right hon. Gentleman.

MR. BRYCE

Will there be any objection to presenting it in the form of a Return?

MR. RITCHIE

No; but I must make I sure I can get it in a complete form first.
