HC Deb 16 February 1939 vol 343 cc1930-1W
Mr. Parker

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware that the ordinary single fare from Becontree to Bromley is 6d., and to Bow Road, a further half-mile, 9½d., whereas persons booking to Bromley and getting out at Bow Road have only to pay 1½d. excess fare; and whether he can bring this anomaly which is reflected in all inclusive fares on the line passing Bow Road, to the attention of the relevant authorities with a view to its removal?

Mr. Burgin

I am inquiring into the matter and will communicate with the hon. Member as soon as I am in a position to do so.
