HC Deb 23 March 1936 vol 310 c883
68. Mr. PETHICK-LAWRENCE

asked the Minister of Transport whether he has considered the representations submitted by commercial travellers and other regular users of special term facilities on the railways as to the conditions imposed on holders of cheap tickets depriving them of any redress for injury to person or loss of property; and whether he is prepared to take any action in the matter?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the MINISTRY of TRANSPORT (Captain Austin Hudson)

The main line railway companies inform my right hon. Friend that, excluding workmen, it has been decided that this limitation will in future apply only to passengers holding cheap day, half-day or evening tickets?
