§ Sir R. Rankinasked the Minister of Supply whether his Department received the bulk of the rail and other steel scrap from the closed down Clogher Valley railway in Ulster?
§ Mr. PeatThe iron and steel materials from the Clogher Valley railway were purchased by a scrap merchant under a private contract with the owners. A small quantity of re-usable material was disposed of to Eire under Board of Trade licence. The remainder will be consumed in the United Kingdom; the bulk has already been shipped to this country.
