HC Deb 13 November 1940 vol 365 c1690
25. Miss Ward

asked the Minister of Transport the result of his conversations with the War Office as to making available Army transport for civilian workers during rush hours?

The Minister of Transport (Lieut.-Colonel Moore-Brabazon)

In so far as Army lorries can be made available, they will generally be used for goods transport, for which they are more suitable than for conveying passengers. My right hon. Friend is assisting passenger transport by releasing a number of public service vehicles previously held at the disposal of the Army.
