asked the Minister of Transport what capital sanctions he has recently given to the British Transport Commission in connection with the improvement of public transport in London.

Mr. Marples

The amount provisionally allocated to the L.T.E. within the limit on the B.T.C.'s capital investment for 1961 is £16 million; compared with £13 million for 1960. In addition, some expenditure by British Railways will be for the benefit of public transport in London.
