§ 80. Mr. STANTONasked the President of the Board of Trade if he will consider the hardship imposed upon commercial travellers by the general lack of hotel accommodation all over the country; is he aware that many of these men have to seek lodging in private houses at great inconvenience; and will he take steps to restore the week-end ticket, as pre-war, so that they may reach their own homes as they did before the War?
§ Mr. NEALI have been asked to answer this question. I would refer the hon. Member to the answer given to a similar question by the hon. Member for Nottingham East on February 18th.
§ Sir J. BUTCHERWill the hon. Gentleman consider the position of the commercial travellers, and the great difficulties they have in travelling in the performance of their duties, and the increased expenses they have to meet?
