HC Deb 16 April 1935 vol 300 c1685W
Mr. T. MORRIS

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether the official inquiry into the loss of the four ships "Usworth" "Blairgowrie," "Millpool," and "La Crescenta" will take into consideration the effect of the new load-line?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

As the House has already been informed, the position of the load-line has not been altered on any of these ships as a result of the introduction of the 1932 Rules.
