§ 46. Mr. L. SMITHasked the Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department whether his commercial representatives abroad are investigating the new tests which are being made with heavy oil and Diesel engines in different countries of the world for the information and guidance of transport undertakers in this country; and whether he will consider publishing the results of such investigations?
§ Lieut.-Colonel COLVILLESuch technical investigations as my hon. Friend indicates would fall somewhat outside the normal activities of the overseas officers of my Department, and I have had no request for enquiries to be made along these lines. If my hon. Friend would let me know exactly what tests he has in mind, I would be pleased to ask the representatives of my Department in the countries concerned to report.
