HC Deb 15 March 1920 vol 126 cc1856-7W
Viscountess ASTOR

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that ships may not bunker at Plymouth without special application on Form S 46, and that this fact causes great inconvenience to the French fishing trawlers and others who call there; and whether he will recommend the Coal Controller to reconsider his decision not to allow Plymouth equal facilities as a bunkering port with Southampton, Portland, Dartmouth, and Brixham?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

Instructions have now been issued that Plymouth shall be placed on the same footing in respect of bunkering facilities as Brixham, Portland, Dartmouth and Southampton.
