HC Deb 19 June 1950 vol 476 c58W
78. Mr. Low

asked the Minister of Transport whether Service leave coaches are still banned by regional commissioners.

Mr. Barnes

Since motor fuel was freed from rationing, coach journeys for Service men proceeding on week-end leave are no longer subject to the restrictions previously imposed by the regional transport commissioners in the interests of saving fuel. There are now no restrictions on such journeys other than the statutory requirements of the Road Traffic Acts.
