HC Deb 08 May 1950 vol 475 c4W
25. Mr. Haire

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power if he will grant an increase of petrol to overseas visitors who purchase a second-hand car or hire a car from a friend.

Mr. P. Noel-Baker

As my hon. Friend is perhaps aware, I propose to double the present allowance of 250 miles motoring to overseas visitors who borrow cars or purchase them second-hand during their visit to this country. I regret that, for the present, I cannot consider any further increase.
