HC Deb 15 October 1945 vol 414 c734W
Sir J. Jarvis

asked the Minister of War Transport whether he is aware of the inadequate travel facilities between this country and the Channel Islands; and what prospect there is of an improvement in the services before the winter.

Mr. Barnes

Yes, Sir; the inadequacy has been due to lack of ships, but I am glad to say that a second vessel, which had just been reconditioned after release from war service and carries 1,000 passengers, was placed on the service on 9th October.
