Sir LEICESTER HARMSWORTHasked the President of the Board of Trade if he will make independent inquiries into the allegations that the delays on the Highland Railway are due to the late arrival at Perth of trains from the South; and, should his inquiries result in these statements being found to be inaccurate, if he will take immediate steps to cause the Highland Railway to regard its own scheduled times, arrival and departure, trains?
§ Mr. BRIDGEMANInquiries are being made into this matter, the result of which I hope to be in a position to communicate to the hon. Baronet in a few days.
