HC Deb 01 March 1920 vol 126 c9
22. Mr. CAIRNS

asked the Minister of Transport whether it is his intention to introduce a Bill or Bills to increase the passenger rates for travelling; and is he aware of the hardship this will place upon school children travelling by train to school, also upon teachers and the general public?

Mr. NEAL

As at present advised the Minister of Transport does not intend to take any steps to effect a further general increase in ordinary passenger fares above their present level.
