§ Mr. Cooper-Keyasked the Minister of Education whether he will approach the Transport Commission with a view to arranging for cheaper fares for children up to the age of 15 years now that the school leaving age has been raised.
§ Mr. TomlinsonMy concern is with travel to and from school. Arrangements already exist for children of compulsory school age to make these journeys at half fares on the railways and the road services for which the Transport Commission are responsible. I understand that fare concessions are also allowed for such children travelling on school journeys and educational visits.
