HC Deb 15 April 1969 vol 781 cc232-3W
Q5. Dame Irene Ward

asked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the concern in respect of Commonwealth trade, the balance of payments, and the export trade resulting from the diverting of goods in container ships from British to foreign ports, he will receive a deputation to discuss co-ordination between Government Departments in these matters.

The Prime Minister

My right hon Friends already work closely together on problems of container transport, but I shall always be prepared to receive representations from the hon. Lady.
