§ 76. Mr. CLYNESasked the President of the Board of Trade if he will state what railway fare reductions are offered to boys' cadet units recognised by the War Office or Admiralty; and whether similar facilities for camp or training purposes can be granted to boy scouts' troops, lads' clubs, and other units approved by a competent authority such as the Home Office Juvenile Organisations Committee?
§ Mr. BRIDGEMANI am in consultation with the Railway Executive Committee on this matter, and will let the right hon. Gentleman know the result as soon as I can.
§ Mr. TURTONMay I ask my hon. Friend whether he is prepared to consider also the question of granting the same concession for the annual outing of the Girls' Friendly Society?
§ Mr. BRIDGEMANYes, that is also under consideration.
§ Mr. CLYNESWill the Railway Executive be willing to receive a deputation from the bodies referred to in the question?
§ Mr. BRIDGEMANI shall be very glad. They are considering the matter, and I should have thought it would have been better to deal with the general question rather than with any special case.
