HC Deb 11 November 1968 vol 773 c2W
69. Earl of Dalkeith

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will refer to the National Board for Prices and Incomes the increase in charges being imposed by British Railways amounting to as much as 26 per cent. on the transport of certain containers between Edinburgh and London.

Mr. Carmichael

No. The National Board for Prices and Incomes have already recommended that the Railways Board should renegotiate freight contracts such as these.
