§ 86. Sir R. Rossasked the Minister of Transport whether the R.M.S. "Duke of York" which has completed her refit will be employed on the Heysham—Belfast service in time for the Christmas holiday traffic.
§ Mr. CallaghanYes.
§ 87. Sir R. Rossasked the Minister of Transport whether the R.M.S. "Cambria" and "Hibernia" will be used during the Christmas holiday period on the Holyhead—Kingstown route thus freeing the R.M.S. "Princess Maud" for her proper functions on the Stranraer—Lame route.
§ Mr. CallaghanI am advised that the traffic on the Larne—Stranraer route would not justify an additional vessel. The "Cambria" and the "Hibernia" are being held to supplement the "Princess Maud" on the Holyhead—Kingstown route.
