§ Captain STRICKLANDasked the Minister of Transport whether he or the Railway Rates Tribunal have taken any action and, if so, of what nature during the past three years to require the main line railway companies to define a chargeable distance for the purpose of fixing passenger fares generally and, in particular, season ticket rates?
§ Mr. HORE-BELISHAThe railway companies are precluded from charging in excess of the standard mileage rates laid down by the Railway Rates Tribunal. Any questions of interpretation are matters for judicial decision.
