HC Deb 07 June 1984 vol 61 cc227-8W
Mr. Tony Banks

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if it is his intention that the recent move towards an integrated fare system and the introduction of the Travelcard should be reversed if the London Regional Transport Bill becomes law.

Mrs. Chalker

No.

Mr. Tony Banks

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will allow the Greater London council's proposed extension of the Travelcard to British Rail services in London if the London Regional Transport Bill becomes law.

Mrs. Chalker

When the provisions of the London Regional Transport Bill are brought into force, the Greater London council will lose its power to subsidise schemes such as the one it has proposed.
