HC Deb 09 March 1978 vol 945 c751W
Mr. Moate

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will give a general direction to British Railways to the effect that those rail travel concessions provided for the registered blind should be provided for those registered as partially sighted; what would be the cost of this concession; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. William Rodgers

It is for the Railways Board to decide whether to extend its arrangements for concessionary travel.
