HC Deb 04 February 1960 vol 616 c158W
51. Mr. Snow

asked the Prime Minister if he will consider the appointment of a Minister of State, subordinate to the Minister of Transport, to be charged solely with those specific railway responsibilities at present exercised inter alia by the Minister of Transport.

Mr. R. A. Butler

I have been asked to reply.

No. I do not think the appointment of a Minister of State is justified.
