§ 50. Mr. R. MORRISONasked the Minister of Transport whether he has examined the recent Reports of the London Traffic Advisory Committee, and particularly the recommendation that the London Electric Railway Company should be invited to give serious consideration to the immediate construction of the tube northwards from Finsbury Park; whether he has yet been in communication with the company on this matter; and whether he is in a position to make a statement?
§ Colonel ASHLEYThe question of the construction by the London Electric Railway Company of the suggested tube has been discussed between representatives of the company and of my Department, but I am not in a position to make any statement at the present time. The problem, as the hon. Member is aware, is largely one of finance.
