HC Deb 25 November 1946 vol 430 c207W
101. Sir J. Mellor

asked the Minister of Transport if he will give an assurance that the South Eastern Railway, Reading, annuities of the Southern Railway will not be reduced or terminated by forthcoming legislation.

Mr. Barnes

No, Sir. These securities are not quoted in the Stock Exchange Official Daily Lists on the dates mentioned in my recent announcement and the compensation for them will accordingly be determined, as I then indicated, by arbitration.
