§ Mr. Stokesasked the Secretary of State for Air whether he is aware that the Iraq Petroleum Company at one time offered to erect and maintain at their own cost beacons along the whole length of the Iraq pipe-line; and on what grounds this offer was refused?
Captain BalfourI cannot trace within the Air Ministry any record of an offer having been made by the Iraq Petroleum Company to erect and maintain at their own cost beacons along the whole length of the Iraq pipe-line. If the hon. Member cares to send me any details I shall be glad to look into these.
