§ 31. Lieut.-Colonel MOOREasked the President of the Board of Trade what action, if any, it is intended to take as a result of the protests against increased rents charged by the Board of Trade for Crown lands on the foreshore of. Certain seaside resorts in Great Britain?
§ The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the BOARD of TRADE (Dr. Burgin)I received a deputation on 31st May from the Conference of Health and Pleasure Resorts in regard to the rentals of Crown foreshores. It was then arranged that the Board of Trade should send a letter to the conference explaining fully the Board's intentions. This letter has now been despatched, and I am sending a copy to my hon. and gallant Friend.
