HC Deb 23 July 1919 vol 118 c1354
97. Mr. INSKIP

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that Government Departments do not make the fullest use of available water transit; and whether, in view of the congestion on the railways, steps can be taken in the case of Government traffic to use water transit when it is available?

Sir A. GEDDES

I should be glad if my hon. and learned Friend would give me particulars of any case he may have in mind, in order that I may be able to take the matter up with the Department concerned.
