§ 67. Mr. Spriggsasked the Minister of Transport if he is aware that only certain forms of public transport are capable of carrying invalid chairs and prams; and if he will give an undertaking that, when considering whether to allow the closure of passenger railway services, he will take this fact into account.
§ Mr. GalbraithWe know that buses can carry folding push chairs, although many cannot accommodate prams or rigid invalid chairs. My right hon. Friend already takes this into account when he considers railway passenger closure proposals. In addition, we hope soon to make it possible for buses to tow luggage trailers where it is safe and suitable.
