§ Mr. Jannerasked the Minister of Fuel and Power what special facilities are to be made available for foreign tourists to bring their motorcars to this country in 1947; and what amounts of fuel will be available to them for tourist purposes.
§ Mr. ShinwellArrangements are already in operation by which visitors from overseas who bring a car or motor cycle with 375W them for use in this country under an international circulation permit can obtain on arrival a basic petrol ration. The amount of petrol available for straight tourist purposes is therefore the same as the basic ration which is issued for cars registered in this country and allows for approximately 270 miles travel per month. Visitors can also obtain supplementary petrol coupons for any necessary business journeys they may desire to make.
