Dr. Ernest A. Davies

asked the Minister of Transport what plans he has to ensure that the Stretford constituency, comprising the borough of Stretford and the urban district of Urmston, is adequately represented in the new South-East Lancashire/North-East Cheshire Passenger Transport Authority as established under the Transport Act, 1968.

Mr. Bob Brown

The South-East Lancashire and North-East Cheshire Passenger Transport Area (Designation) Order, 1969, which my right hon. Friend made on 27th January provides for Stretford Municipal Borough and Urmston Urban District Council jointly to appoint one member to the Authority. They will also be able to appoint a deputy. In addition the members appointed by the county councils can be expected to watch the interests of the county districts.
