§ 60. Mr. GILBERTasked whether, in view of the urgent need for more travelling facilities for residents in South London, he can now make any statement as to when the South Eastern and Chatham Railway Company propose to re-open the stations on their Victoria and City line, and also to run a service of trains similar to pre-War times?
§ Sir E. GEDDESI am still not in a position to add anything to the reply given on the 1st March. The services in question are non-remunerative and materially restrict and negative the running of other long-distance services, and the L.C.C. trams offer an alternative service. Pending a Report by the Advisory Committee on London Traffic, it is not proposed to open these stations.
