HC Deb 08 October 1940 vol 365 cc278-9W
Mr. Groves

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware that, on the occasions when passengers on omnibuses are asked to alight and take shelter during an air-raid, they are compelled when they again board the vehicle to pay their fare again; and whether he will arrange with the London Passenger Transport Board that passengers who possess tickets should be permitted to travel on any vehicle going in their direction?

Lieut.-Colonel Moore-Brabazon

The Board's instructions on this point are that, in the circumstances stated in my hon. Friend's Question, the passenger may without further payment continue to his destination by any other omnibus on the same route or on any other route that will serve. The attention of the staff has once more been drawn to these instructions.
