HC Deb 31 January 1934 vol 285 c343
25. Mr. McENTEE

asked the Minister of Transport what is the present position regarding Waterloo Bridge?

The MINISTER of TRANSPORT (Mr. Oliver Stanley)

I understand that the London County Council will very shortly invite tenders for the reconditioning and widening of this bridge.

Mr. McENTEE

Will the Minister tell the House just what he means by "very shortly," because the matter has been going on for a long time?

Mr. STANLEY

I can give no ampler meaning of "very shortly" than that it will be in a very short time.
