§ 36. Mr. HENDERSON STEWARTasked the Minister of Transport how many applications there are at present in his Department from local authorities for financial assistance for bridge and tunnel schemes, the details of which schemes have already been worked out and a definite financial contribution promised by the authorities concerned; what is the total capital sum involved in the schemes; and what is the amount promised by the local authorities?
§ Mr. HORE-BELISHAThe records of my Department do not distinguish bridge works from the comprehensive road schemes of which, in many case, they form part; and I fear that the information which the hon. Member desires could only be obtained at considerable cost in time and labour.
