56. Mr. W. ROBERTS

asked the Minister of Transport whether his Department has been in consultation with the representatives or organisations of those engaged in the road transport industry with a view to the organisation of road transport in case of war or other national emergency; and, if not, whether such a step is contemplated?

54. Colonel BURTON

asked the Minister of Transport whether any plan for the distribution of food and other supplies in this country in the event of war has yet been submitted by the Associated Road Operators or other bodies concerned with road transport; whether such scheme or schemes have been adopted wholly or in part; and, if not, whether any plans have been made for the distribution of food or other supplies in time of war or other national emergency?

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

These matters have not been overlooked.
