HC Deb 17 May 1939 vol 347 c1434W
Mr. Malcolm MacMillan

asked the Minister of Transport when he intends to implement the promise given to the House by his predecessor to visit the Western Isles in order to obtain first-hand knowledge of the bad condition of the second-class and unclassified roads and to study the sea transport services with a view to improvement?

Captain Wallace

I hope that it may be possible for me to make the journey to which the hon. Member refers, but in the present circumstances I cannot undertake to settle a date for this inspection.
