31. Mr. Macdonaldasked the Minister of Education if he will consult with the authorities concerned, with a view to arranging to raise the half-fare privilege on all public transport for children up to 15 years of age on educational journeys.
§ Mr. TomlinsonI would refer the hon. Member to the reply given to the hon. Member for Hastings (Mr. Cooper-Key) on 27th July last.
Mr. MacdonaldI have not seen that reply. Does it extend to school children, not only on educational journeys, but other journeys, provided that they are under the age of 15?
§ Mr. TomlinsonI am not concerned with jounrneys other than educational journeys.
