Alert me about debates like this

I repeat to my hon. and learned Friend the Member for Dover what I have said to him previously; namely that we shall look sympathetically at projects for the Dover Harbour. I intend to set up a working, efficient ad hoc committee, over which I or my hon. Friend the Under-Secretary of State will preside, to ensure that complaints are attended to. I am grateful to my hon. Friend the Member for Croydon, South (Sir R. Thompson) for the generous way in which he accepted that something which he does not welcome is likely to happen.
