HC Deb 11 December 1979 vol 975 c559W
Mr. Litherland

asked the Minister of Transport what representations he has received from the hon. Member for Manchester, Central on transport costs; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Fowler

I have received representations from the hon. Member about increases in bus fares in Greater Manchester. The level of fares is not a matter on which I can—or would wish to—intervene except in the context of a properly constituted appeal against a decision of the traffic commissioners.
