§ 70. Dame Irene Wardasked the President of the Board of Trade why there is delay in announcing the result of the appeal proceedings in respect of the London-Teesside Air Service.
§ Dame Irene WardIn view of the very long delay there has been, will the right hon. Gentleman be kind enough to define "very shortly", because his idea of the term is slightly different from mine?
§ Mr. JayNot in more precise terms than that. But I should like to tell the hon. Lady that I am very anxious to reach the right decision here, because it is of great importance, as she knows, to the North-East Coast. I am therefore making sure that all the facts are before me before I come to a decision.
