HC Deb 03 July 1957 vol 572 cc116-7W
71. Mr. Awbery

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation what complaints he has received regarding the inadequacy of the Aust Ferry to deal with the growing needs of the locality and the considerable delays which take place by the traffic crossing to and from Wales; and what steps are being taken to improve the position.

Mr. Watkinson

Eleven complaints have been received during the last eight years. Apart from my requirements concerning the safety of passengers, I have no responsibility for the operation or improvement of this ferry, which is privately owned.
