HC Deb 03 December 1931 vol 260 c1266W
Mr. HUTCHISON

asked the President of the Board of Trade the total amount received for pilotage services in the district under the jurisdiction of London Trinity House for each of the past three years and for the first 11 months of the present year, together with the total net tonnage for vessels piloted in and out for the same periods, distinguishing between British and foreign vessels; and what was the net tonnage of vessels entering and leaving during these periods which were not piloted by licensed British pilots?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

I am informed by the Trinity House, who are the Pilotage Authority for the London district, that particulars in respect of the months of October and November, 1931, are not yet available, and that they have no information regarding the net tonnage of vessels entering or leaving the district which are not piloted by licensed British pilots.
