HC Deb 19 November 1919 vol 121 c951W
Mr. BRIGGS

asked the Minister of Transport if he will provide transport so as to secure early and sufficient supplies of cement for the building contractors of Manchester, otherwise many contracts will be brought to a standstill, and numbers of operatives thrown out of work?

Sir R. WILLIAMS

Every effort is being made to provide transport for the traffic of the country, including cement.
