HC Deb 06 March 1963 vol 673 c374
27. Mr. Sydney Irving

asked the Minister of Transport what proposals he has received from the Railways Board for major capital expenditure on the rebuilding of Dartford Station.

Vice-Admiral Hughes Hallett

None, Sir.

Mr. Irving

Will the hon. and gallant Gentleman bear in mind that there is an urgent need for a new station, and will he give sympathetic consideration to any proposals that come forward?

Vice-Admiral Hughes Hallett

Certainly, Sir. We understand that a scheme is being worked out by the Southern Region, but it has not yet been put to the Regional Railway Board.
