HC Deb 03 July 1947 vol 439 c1492
32. Mr. Byers

asked the President of the Board of Trade, if he is aware that in the recent publications of the British Travel Association, particularly "The British Isles" and "Come to Britain" pamphlet No. 4, South-West England, there is no reference to the county of Dorset; and if he will ensure that this omission is rectified.

Sir S. Cripps

I am bringing the hon. Member's suggestion to the attention of the British Tourist and Holidays Board.

Mr. Byers

Will the right hon. and learned Gentleman do that urgently, so that the attention of tourists coming to England this summer can be drawn to the attractions and beauty of this county, which has been missed out?

Sir S. Cripps

I will draw attention to it.

Mr. Charles Williams

Arising out of the original answer, why in the world was Dorset ever put in the South-West of England?
