HC Deb 01 February 1978 vol 943 c196W
64. Mr. Raphael Tuck

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if, in the light of his policy of transferring freight from road to rail, he will take steps to encourage the transport of mail by rail and if he will make a statement.

Mr. William Rodgers

I hope that the railways will retain and develop their long-standing business relationship with the Post Office, but that is a matter for the BRB and not for me.
