HC Deb 19 May 1947 vol 437 cc205-6W
84. Mr. G. Wallace

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will grant rail transport facilities to the Swanley, Kent, Working Men's Club for a children's out- ing to Margate, on which matter correspondence has already been submitted to him by the hon. Member for Chislehurst.

Mr. Barnes

No, Sir. As I have already informed my hon. Friend, I regret that I am unable to lift the embargo on special trains for sporting and social outings for events of this kind, owing to the need to economise in coal.
