§ 63. Mr. KENNEDYasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Transport whether he is aware that the London and South Western Railway Company have refused to accept an agreement entered into with other railway companies that vans with shelves should be provided for the transport of small packages of strawberries and other soft fruit; and whether, in view of the fact that this fruit when packed in tiers arrives in the market in a damaged condition owing to the oscillation of the train, he will approach the company in question and endeavour to get some arrangement made prior to the season commencing?
§ Mr. NEALI would refer the hon. Member to the reply given yesterday to an almost identical question asked by the hon. and gallant Member for Basingstoke (Colonel Sir A. Holbrook), of which I am sending him a copy.
