HC Deb 11 December 1958 vol 597 cc119-20W
Mr. Mason

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation if he will issue a general direction to the British Transport Commission to reconsider their plans for reorganisation of train and traffic workings, especially where much redundancy is feared.

Mr. Watkinson

No. The reorganisation of services is an integral part of the modernisation plan to achieve a compact and efficient railway system.
