§ 89. Mr. Fauldsasked the Minister of Transport if she will give an assurance that the railway tunnel south of Snow Hill Station, Birmingham, will be retained for railway purposes until the results of all the investigations currently being undertaken by her Department are completed.
§ Mr. SwinglerAny question of disposing of the tunnel would arise only if my right hon. Friend were to give her consent to proposals now under consideration for withdrawing local passenger services. In that event she would study future needs most carefully before deciding whether to agree to its disposal.
