HC Deb 26 March 1919 vol 114 cc412-3
90. Mr. CAIRNS

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware that young children in the Bedlington district of Northumberland have to leave their homes at 7.20 a.m. to get a train at Bedlington station to get to a secondary school at Blyth, which applies also to teachers in the elementary schools; and if he will consider the advisability of putting on the pre-war commercial autocar?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

I have asked the North-Eastern Railway Company for their observations on this matter, and I will write to the hon. Gentleman on receipt of their reply,
