HC Deb 23 November 1939 vol 353 c1405W
Colonel Burton

asked the Minister of Transport whether, in view of the large number of persons who now crowd into partially-lighted carriages at Liverpool Street, he will arrange for a greater proportion of the accommodation to be retained for ladies only?

Captain Wallace

I am advised that up to the present the railway company have had no reason to suppose that the number of compartments reserved for ladies is insufficient. I have drawn their attention to my hon. and gallant Friend's suggestion.
