HC Deb 14 December 1960 vol 632 c53W
77. Mr. John MacLeod

asked the Minister of Transport what reply he will give to the hon. Member for Ross and Cromarty to his letter of 23rd November regarding the application for an A-licence by Black Isle (Transport) Limited.

Mr. Marples

In the letter which I sent to my hon. Friend on 12th December, I told him that the grant or refusal of carriers' licences was wholly within the statutory responsibility of licensing authorities and that I could not intervene.
