§ Mr. Teddy Taylorasked the Secretary of State for Scotland (1) if he will make a statement on the extent to which the EEC policy to lower age limits for half price travel fares will apply to transport services provided by Scottish Transport Executives, the Scottish Transport Group and Scottish local authorities;
(2) if he will explain the nature of the advice of the EEC on lowering the age limits for half price travel and the extent to which this advice is or will be binding on transport services for which he has a responsibility.
§ Mr. MillanI would refer the hon. Member to the reply given today by my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Transport to my hon. Friend the Member for Chester-le-Street (Mr. Radice). The European railways' views annexed to the Commission's report did not deal with other transport services.
