Major BARNESasked the Minister of Transport if he will give his grounds for stating that no capital valuation of the railways arises out of the provisions of the Ministry of Transport Act?
§ Sir E. GEDDESIt is very difficult to deal fully and usefully with such a matter by way of question and answer. In reply to a question by the hon. and gallant Member on the 16th February I gave my reason, but sought his assistance if I had missed or failed to appreciate the point of importance which he raises. I regret that he has not seen fit to accept the suggestion of a personal discussion which was then made.
