HC Deb 10 December 1919 vol 122 c1356W
Sir H. NIELD

asked the Minister of Transport whether, in relation to any proposals to permanently increase fares beyond the pre-war standard, he will consider the possibility of being able to make special terms for commercial travellers who are compelled to travel definite routes at intervals in order to obtain their living, and who are unable to add their travelling expenses to their commissions?

Mr. NEAL

If any review of railway passenger fares is undertaken, the question of such special facilities will be considered in all its bearings, but at present I am not in a position to recommend exceptional concessions to particular sections of the community.
