§ 52. Mr. Raphael Tuckasked the Secretary of State for the Environment why the statistics relating to the percentage of traffic in Great Britain carried by road supplied by his Department for the United Nations publication Statistics for Europe differ from those published in his Press Notice No. 288.
§ Mr. Eldon GriffithsThe road shares of British freight traffic given in the Press Notice were calculated on totals which include coastwise shipping: the United Nations appear to have based their calculations on totals exclusive of coastwise shipping.
