§ 116. Mr. Parkasked the Minister of Transport if, following her discussions on the matter with the chairmen of the regional planning councils, she will now suspend all railway closures pending her review of Government policy on the coordination of transport services.
§ Mrs. CastleNo. But if, following comments from a planning council on a particular proposal, I decide that closure would conflict with developing plans and policies I shall either refuse my consent or defer my decision.
