Mr. Donald Scott
asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of War Transport whether he will consider the running of more trains reserved for members of His Majesty's Forces on leave?
The Joint Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of War Transport
(Mr. Noel-Baker)
Machinery already exists through which additional leave trains are arranged when the number of Service personnel travelling regularly between given points justifies that course.
Mr. John Dugdale
Will the hon. Member consider allowing private soldiers and non-commissioned officers to sit in first-class compartments when the third-class are overcrowded?
Mr. Noel-Baker
I think my hon. Friend will find that they do so.
