HC Deb 14 September 1956 vol 558 cc9-10W
Mr. Warbey

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation what advice or instructions he has given to British shipping companies regarding the manner and destination of the payment of tolls on ships passing through the Suez Canal since 26th July last.

Mr. Watkinson

None. I understand that the General Council of British Shipping has advised its members that payment of transit dues should continue to be made by owners to the Suez Canal Company in accordance with their established practice.
