HC Deb 05 May 1965 vol 711 cc174-5W
67. Mr. Brewis

asked the Minister of Transport whether, in view of the imminent completion of the South-West of Scotland Plan, he will vary the consent to the closure of the Stranraer-Dumfries railway by providing that normal services will continue until the recommendations of the plan have been considered.

Mr. Tom Fraser

No. But I will certainly take full account of progress with the plan if the Railways Board ask for my agreement to disposal of the track.
