Reduced Railway Pares for Soldiers.

HC Deb 28 June 1909 vol 7 cc197-8W

Mr. HAROLD PEARSON

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that although the police have the right to ride on the Mid-Suffolk Railway at two-thirds of the ordinary rate soldiers are denied this right; and whether he will say what steps he is taking to secure this privilege being extended to soldiers duly provided with passes?

Mr. HALDANE

No question has hitherto arisen in connection with this light railway. If my hon. Friend will be good enough to let me have full particulars of the case I will make inquiries.
