HC Deb 30 April 1940 vol 360 c550W
Sir J. Mellor

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether, in view of the Government's declared intention to grant to those serving in His Majesty's Forces facilities for travel at half normal rates, and having regard to the monthly return ticket being the form of return ticket normally used by the general public, he will consider making arrangements to enable members of the Forces to purchase monthly return tickets at half the price paid by the general public?

Captain Crookshank

Members of His Majesty's Forces travelling on leave at their own expense are given a single ticket at half ordinary single fare or a return ticket at ordinary single fare. I see no need for an alteration in this arrangement.
