HC Deb 28 October 1953 vol 518 c366W
56. Mr. Sparks

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation how it is proposed to maintain an uninterrupted flow of traffic during the sale of the first 10,000 road vehicles of the British Transport Commission; and what conditions will be imposed on the new owners to ensure that such traffic will continue to be conveyed.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

I confidently rely on the British Transport Commission to make the best arrangements they can to carry on the existing undertaking without avoidable disturbance of the country's transport system in accordance with their duty under the Act. The question of any conditions to be attached to the sale of transport units in particular cases is a matter for the Commission and the Disposal Board.
