HC Deb 18 March 1947 vol 435 cc51-2W
85. Mr. Philips Price

asked the President of the Board of Trade what steps are being taken to replace the parts of the Everall sectional railway bridges presented recently to the Polish Government, a part of which was lost at sea on the voyage out.

Mr. Wilson

I fear that for supply reasons replacement is not practicable. The material in question formed part of a gift to the Polish Government out of surplus stores, and replacement parts are not available.
