HC Deb 13 October 1942 vol 383 c1512W
Sir J. Nall

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of War Transport if he will give an assurance that in any proposed modification of the Government's Road Haulage Scheme no preferential treatment will be accorded to, nor any monopolistic position conferred upon, any particular transport undertakings or class of undertakings?

Mr. Noel-Baker

Any modifications of the Road Haulage Scheme which may be made will be designed to promote the national war effort and not to serve the interests of particular undertakings or classes of undertakings.
