HC Deb 13 November 1930 vol 244 c1861W
Mr. SHEPHERD

asked the Minister of Transport whether his attention has been called to the danger to the travelling public likely to ensue as the consequence of the dismissals recently imposed upon the lower paid railway workers of all grades; whether he has yet considered the request to set up a commission of inquiry into the administration and management of the railways; and what action he intends to take in the matter?

Mr. HERBERT MORRISON

I am not aware of any case where danger to the travelling public has been caused as a result of the circumstances to which my hon. Friend refers, and I do not propose to set up an inquiry into the administration and management of the railways.
