HC Deb 05 February 1964 vol 688 c152W
87. Mr. J. Morris

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will announce his decision on the recommendations of the Transport Users' Consultative Committee of August 1962 on the future of the Porthcawl-Pyle railway in summer.

Mr. Marples

I have informed the Railways Board that, after considering the recommendation of the Transport Users' Consultative Committee and the other factors involved in providing a service in the summer months only, I agree to the closure of this service.

As the hon. Member knows, the winter service ceased, with my agreement, last year.
