HC Deb 27 November 1957 vol 578 c123W
71. Mr. Proctor

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation if he will give a general direction to the British Transport Commission to implement the Gowers Report and provide for the safety and welfare of the railway workers along the lines indicated in the Report.

Mr. Nugent

No. The British Transport Commission is already making considerable progress in the improvement of working conditions on the railways. A direction would not help them to do more.
