§ 81. Mr. Higginsasked the Minister of Transport under what Sections of Prices and Incomes Standstill: Period of Severe Restraint, Command Paper No. 3150, British Transport Advertising Limited are seeking approval of an increase from £7 16s. 0d. to £9 in charges for quad crown railway station advertisements during the period of severe restraint; and if she will make a statement.
§ Mrs. CastleCommand Paper No. 3150 does not lay down criteria for increase in rents as it does in the case of prices. I am satisfied however that 95W British Transport Advertising have paid full regard to the need for restraint laid down in the White Paper, and in a number of cases have deferred increases until after 30th June, 1967.
