HC Deb 20 December 1938 vol 342 cc2701-2W
Mr. Perkins

asked the Secretary of State for Air in which of the II air lines mentioned as eligible for subsidy in Command Paper 5894 are Railway Air Services interested; and which of the companies mentioned are entirely independent from Railway Air Services?

Captain Balfour

The company known as Railway Air Services has no financial interest in any other air operating company, but railway companies are directly or indirectly interested in the following companies mentioned in Command Paper 5894: Railway Air Services, Limited, Jersey Airways, Limited, Scottish Airways, Limited, Western Isles Airways, Limited, Isle of Man Air Services, Limited. There is, as far as I am aware, no railway interest in the remaining companies mentioned in that paper.
