§ 19. Mr. STRANGERasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he can state the average inclusive rate per ton for delivering cargo from ship to warehouse and from warehouse to ship in London, Liverpool, Glasgow, Antwerp. Hamburg, and Rotterdam, respectively?
§ The MINISTER of TRANSPORT (Mr. Gosling)I have been asked to reply. I am not in possession of the information which would enable me to give the particulars asked for, but I would remind the hon. Member that the charges made and the services rendered vary according to the nature of the cargo, and also that the rates charged at the various ports do not necessarily cover like services or accommodation.
