HC Deb 08 December 1920 vol 135 c2151W
Sir O. THOMAS

asked the Minister of Transport if the London and North Western Railway Company has intimated its intention to deepen the inner harbour at Holyhead at an expenditure of £300,000; if so, will he render every assistance to the company to carry out the scheme, both on account of the national importance and also as a means of providing productive employment for a large number of men?

Mr. NEAL

I am sending the hon. and gallant Member a copy of an answer given on the 22nd November to my hon. Friend the Member for the Cromac Division of Belfast (Mr. Lindsay), from which he will observe that my right hon. Friend the Minister of Transport has provisionally approved capital expenditure by the London and North Western Railway Company estimated at £258,500, involved in the execution of various works in the inner harbour at Holyhead.
