Oral Answers to Questions — War Transport. – in the House of Commons am ar 10 Rhagfyr 1941.
asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of War Transport whether the proposed cuts in train services will apply to the suburban services to the east of London; whether he is aware that these are already greatly overcrowded in the rush hours, and consider improving them rather than cutting them down?
The answer to the first part of the Question is "No, Sir," but in answer to the second part I regret that I cannot give any undertaking that these services will be increased.
