HC Deb 23 June 1925 vol 185 c1264
4. Sir WILFRID SUGDEN

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will cause to be erected at the Hartlepools breakwater a suitable foghorn, on account of the many vessels which have lately gone ashore endeavouring to enter the port at this point?

Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTER

I have received no representations urging the establishment of a fog horn at this point, but the Hartlepool Port and Harbour Commissioners, who, as local lighthouse authority, are primarily concerned, have power to erect such a signal, with the approval of Trinity House, if they consider it necessary in the interests of navigation.
