HC Deb 27 October 1920 vol 133 cc1768-9W
Mr. CHARLES EDWARDS

asked the Minister of Transport whether, seeing that workmen on the afternoon and night shifts do not get the advantage of workmen's tickets, which are issued on Mondays for the early morning trains, he will order tickets to be issued at workmen's rates irrespective of what time the shift commences?

Mr. NEAL

The arrangements referred to are based on the recommendations of the Rates Advisory Committee under the title of cheap early trains, and the general extension to all hours of the day is impracticable, though there are some special cases in which previously existing arrangements have not yet been terminated.
