HC Deb 22 July 1937 vol 326 c2436W
Mr. Anstruther-Gray

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he is aware that Dartmouth cadets receive no concessions in the way of reduced railway fares when travelling to and from Dartmouth notwithstanding the fact that they wear uniform when so doing; and whether he will consider granting such concessions?

Lieut.-Colonel Llewellin

The railway travelling concessions enjoyed by Naval personnel are granted by the companies and not at the expense of Naval funds. The companies have been asked to grant such concessions to Dartmouth cadets, but they have declined to differentiate between them and public schoolboys, and I do not think that a further approach to the companies would serve any useful purpose.
