HC Deb 21 July 1955 vol 544 c70W
73. Mr. Hurd

asked the Secretary of State for War in how many cases during the past year the lowest tenders accepted by his Department for the transport of civilian workers to and from War Department depots have been disapproved by the area traffic licensing authority; and at what extra cost to public funds.

Mr. F. Maclean

In six cases, at an extra cost of about £1,000 a year so long as all the six contracts concerned continue in force.
