HC Deb 02 June 1965 vol 713 c224W
76. Mr. Newens

asked the Minister of Transport if he will make a statement on his plans for preferential rates in the payment of tolls for regular users of the Dartford Tunnel.

Mr. Tom Fraser

It is for the Dartford Tunnel Joint Committee to make proposals, and submit them for my approval under Section 73 of the Dartford Tunnel Act, 1930. They have recently submitted proposals for a 10 per cent. discount on the face value of books of prepaid tickets in respect of all vehicles except those subject to a sixpenny toll. I have approved these proposals.
