HC Deb 24 October 1949 vol 468 cc81-2W
18. Mr. Shephard

asked the Minister of Transport if he is aware that the charges previously made for transport of passengers and motor cars to cross the ferry at Kylesku, Sutherland, have now been abandoned; and what steps he is taking to free other ferries in the British Isles from charges.

Mr. Barnes

The answer to the first part of the Question is "Yes." The answer to the second part is that the initiative in this matter must come from the local authorities.
