HC Deb 24 March 1919 vol 114 c3
3. Sir KINGSLEY WOOD

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he has received representations urging that cheaper travelling facilities shall be given at Easter; whether he has consulted the Railway Executive upon the matter; and whether any concessions can be made?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

Representations to the effect mentioned have been received, and the Railway Executive Committee have been consulted; but, as I informed the hon. Gentleman on Monday last, the position of the railways does not admit of cheap travelling facilities being given at Easter.
