HC Deb 21 November 1947 vol 444 cc232-3W
Mr. Platts-Mills

asked the Minister of Transport on what authority permission was granted for oil tankers JTU 54, JMB 19 and EBU 9 to make a journey of some 200 miles in order to deliver fuel oil to an hotel in London on the night I5th–16th November, 1947.

Mr. Callaghan
