§ 6. Sir W. J0YNS0N-HICKSasked the President of the Board of Trade when the existing contract for the sale of surplus commercial vehicles to the owners of the Slough depot expires; whether it is proposed to renew it; and, if so, on what terms?
§ The FINANCIAL SECRETARY to the TREASURY (Mr. Hilton Young)The contract expires on the 6th April, 1922. It is not proposed to renew it.
§ Sir W. J0YNS0N-HICKSDoes that mean that no further vehicles will be declared surplus?
§ Mr. YOUNGI do not know how that may be under the terms of existing contracts. Of course, the terms of existing contracts have to be fulfilled. No further contracts will be made.
