§ MR. LIDDELL (Down, W.)To ask the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that the Great Northern Railway Company (Ireland) charge the same rates for goods from Belfast to Glenavy as from Belfast to Antrim, though Glenavy is ten miles nearer Belfast than Antrim, and although the total distance from Belfast to Antrim is only 27½ miles; and whether he will make representations to the railway company on the subject.
(Answered by Mr. Lloyd-George.) No complaint has been made to the Board of Trade with respect to the rates to Glenavy, but I have asked the railway company for their observations on the subject, and will communicate with the hon. Member on receiving their reply.
