§ 109. Mr. Callaghanasked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation what progress has been made since his meeting of 21st July on negotiations for a new apportionment of dock charges in South Wales between shipowners and cargo interests.
§ Mr. Boyd-CarpenterIt was agreed at the meeting of 21st July that this complex subject should be further examined by technical experts of the British Transport Commission, the British Liner Committee and the Industrial Association for Wales and Monmouthshire. These are the interests primarily concerned, and I understand that their examination, which is proceeding, is likely to take some time.
