HC Deb 01 July 1964 vol 697 c231W
82. Sir W. Teeling

asked the Minister of Transport if he will issue a general direction, in the public interest, to British Railways to withdraw the rule recently issued that no intending passengers must be informed of any alternative cheaper way of buying tickets than that quoted at railway ticket guichets for direct fares, in view of the letter sent him by the hon. Member for Brighton, Pavilion.

Mr. Marples

No. Matters of the kind to which my hon. Friend refers are for the British Railways Board, and I have sent his letter to them.
