§ 24. Mr. FENBYasked the Secretary for Mines when the Standing Joint Committee on Mineral Transport began its sittings; how many sittings have been held; and whether any Report has yet been presented?
§ The MINISTER of TRANSPORT (Colonel Ashley)It will be convenient if I answer this question. The Standing Joint Committee on Mineral Transport held its first meeting on the 4th March. At that meeting three Sub-Committees were appointed, each of which has held one sitting. Information required by the Sub-Committees is now being collected, and I understand that so soon as it is available further meetings will be arranged. No report has yet been presented.
