HC Deb 13 May 1964 vol 695 c70W
55. Mr. Stonehouse

asked the Minister of Transport what instructions he has given to the British Railways Board, following reports by Transport Users' Consultative Committees on proposed closures, with regard to the retention of passenger railway services in the West Midlands, in view of the congested road conditions and the unsuitability of alternative bus transport.

Mr. Galbraith

None. My right hon. Friend has not so far had occasion to refuse his consent to a passenger closure proposal in the West Midlands.
