HC Deb 28 February 1968 vol 759 c381W
79. Sir T. Beamish

asked the Minister of Transport if she will now announce her decision whether or not to approve the closure of the Hurst Green-Tunbridge Wells-Lewes railway line; and what has been the cause of the delay.

Mr. John Morris:

I can assure the hon. and gallant Member that there will be no unnecessary delay. But this is a difficult and complicated proposal and it is essential to examine every aspect of it in great detail to ensure that the decision finally taken is the right one.
