HC Deb 28 January 1953 vol 510 c127W
Mr. J. Taylor

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Air if he will arrange for travel warrants issued to airmen on leave to cover the whole journey to and from their homes by any public service vehicle, and not merely to the nearest convenient railway station.

Mr. Ward

No. It is already the practice to issue a bus warrant or refund the fare if the distance between the airman's home and the nearest railway station is more than five miles.

Mr. Lewis

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Air if he will grant a free travel warrant to all officers and other ranks allowed time off to celebrate the Coronation of Her Majesty, or a fixed cash payment in lieu thereof.

Mr. Ward

No.
