§ Dr. Edmund Marshallasked the Minister of Transport why the nomination submitted by the Goole chamber of commerce and shipping for continued membership of the Humber local advisory board of the British Transport Docks Board has not been endorsed by him.
§ Mr. Kenneth ClarkeIn making this appointment, my right hon. Friend selected one of two nominees put forward by the Goole chamber of commerce and shipping. It would not be appropriate for me to disclose the reasons for my right hon. Friend's choice of individuals when making such appointments, but they involve no adverse reflection whatever on the personal qualities or record of service of the nominee who was not selected.
