HC Deb 23 November 1931 vol 260 cc53-4W
Brigadier-General CLIFTON BROWN

asked the Minister of Transport whether he has given his decision on the appeal of the Ledbury Transport Company against the award of the Southern Traffic Commissioners to refuse them a licence for their Green Line London to Maidenhead service; and whether he has considered the views of the Wokingham Town Council and the petition from the inhabitants of that district in the matter?

Mr. PYBUS

Two appeals have been lodged by the Ledbury Transport Company against decisions of the Traffic Commissioners for the Southern Area in respect of services between Reading and London. The inquiries into these appeals have been heard and my decisions have been announced. Representations in respect of the service forming the subject matter of one of these appeals were received from the Wokingham Town Council and were carefully considered. I am afraid I am at a loss to understand the reference in this connection to the Green Line London to Maidenhead service, which, I may point out, does not touch Wokingham.
