HC Deb 20 June 1910 vol 18 c36
Mr. LLOYD

asked whether any, and, if so, what steps have been taken by His Majesty's Government for the better lighting of Ras Fatih and other points in the Persian Gulf?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

No steps have been taken of late in regard to the better lighting of the Persian Gulf, but the matter will not be lost sight of.

Mr. LLOYD

Will the hon. Gentleman say whether repeated representations have not been received from the shipping companies in the Persian Gulf in regard to this matter?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

Yes.
