§ 8. Mr. P. A. HARRISasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will consider permitting children to travel at the old rates when they have to go 5 daily by train to school, if they can produce a certificate from the headmaster of the school that this is the only way they can attend?
Mr. ROBERTSI fear the suggestion made by the hon. Gentleman cannot be adopted. I would observe, however, that no increase has been made in the rates charged for season-tickets, and that the issue of such tickets to day scholars at half-rates has not been discontinued.
