§ Sir JAMES PARROTTasked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention had been called to the fact that, though Glasgow, Perth, and Inverness continue to receive fruit direct by rail from the South of England, the Railway Executive has stopped all fruit traffic to Edinburgh, Dundee, and Aberdeen, thereby inflicting great hardship on the fruit firms in these cities; and whether, seeing that the trucks conveying fruit for Glasgow, Perth, and Inverness must pass through junctions where they can be left and hooked on to trains proceeding to Edinburgh, Dundee, and Aberdeen, he will instruct the Railway Executive to act in the manner indicated?
Mr. ROBERTSI would refer the hon. Member to the answer given yesterday to the question asked by the hon. Member for South' Aberdeen.
