Royal Commission of Transport

Royal Commission of Transport.

I put forward, earnestly, the suggestion that a Royal Commission on Transport be appointed to deal fully with this matter. I am aware that a Ministry of Transport is foreshadowed, and that this is more or less a committee of inquiry by responsible heads in departments such as the Railways, Marine and Public Works. Should it not go farther in its scope and representation? Surely the Harbour Boards, Highways Board, Municipal Association are also vitally interested. So too are the shipping companies, the carriers, and, above all, the great, inarticulate, long suffering general public, and the commercial interests who serve them.
