HC Deb 02 December 1965 vol 721 cc243-4W
Mr. Harry Howarth

asked the Minister of Transport what representations he has now received from local authorities requesting legislation to be introduced to permit them to make some financial contribution to non-local authority transport undertakers in consideration of travel concessions being granted to special classes of persons, particularly old-age pensioners; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Tom Fraser

I have received a number of such representations, but I cannot add to the Answer given to my hon. Friend the Member for Heywood and Royton (Mr. Barnett) on 27th October.
