HC Deb 16 December 1968 vol 775 c275W
Mr. James Davidson

asked the Minister of Transport if he will give a general direction to the Board of British Railways that complete figures of comparative costs of locomotive works throughout the United Kingdom be published before any decision is taken to close of run down any of those works.

Mr. Carmichael

No. The comparative costs of railway workshops are a matter for the British Railways Board, which takes them into consideration in its planning.
