§ 41. Mr. GILBERTasked the Minister of Transport whether he can issue an order to the railway companies to extend the age of children's half-price tickets from 14 12 to 14 years of age; and, if not, whether, in view of the increased cost of living to the working classes, he will ask the companies to favourably consider this two years' age extension on children's cheap tickets?
§ Sir E. GEDDESI would refer the hon. Member to the answer given to a similar question put by the hon. Member for Barnard Castle (Mr. Swan) on the 15th instant.
