139. Sir W. Darling

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if, with a view to encouraging night and early morning services, he will sanction an overtime charge on taxicabs by raising the initial hiring charge of 9d. to 1s. after 10 p.m. and until 8 a.m. in the Metropolitan area.

Mr. Oliver

I would refer the hon. Member to the answer which my right hon. Friend gave the hon. Member for Twickenham (Mr. Keeling) on 7th February.
