HC Deb 18 December 1947 vol 445 c408W
163. Mr. Lever

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware that munitions are being loaded on to the s.s. "Baron Cawdor" at Manchester; and what are the nature and destination of such munitions.

Mr. Callaghan

Military cargo for the maintenance of British Forces overseas was recently loaded in the "Baron Cawdor" at Manchester. As regards the second part of the Question, it is not in the public interest to furnish details of composition and destination of individual shipments of military cargo.
