HC Deb 07 December 1908 vol 198 c77
MR. CROOKS (Woolwich)

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade whether he will consider the advisability of introducing legislation to require all railway companies to issue third-class season tickets.

THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF TRADE (Mr. CHURCHILL,) Dundee

I do not see my way to introduce legislation of the nature suggested by my hon. friend, but I may remind him that third-class season tickets are now issued by many of the railway companies voluntarily, and their number appears to be increasing.
