HC Deb 10 February 1970 vol 795 c307W
48. Mr. Albert Roberts

asked the Minister of Transport when he proposes to approve electrification of rail road traffic on the Eastern Region extending to the North, namely, to Wakefield and Leeds and York, in view of the fact that electrification will bring about increased efficiency at a reduced cost.

Mr. Mulley

I have received no such proposals from the Railways Board.
