Minutes of meeting of October 21st, 1959
Agreed.
720. GENERAL MATTERS OF POLICY
1. Programme of Diesel Multiple
Unit operation
(a) 1960/1961 Building Programmes
Noted that the Works and Equipment Committee had approved the
proposal for 29 of the 50 MC + DT units in the 1960 programme for the
Nottingham-Leicester and old G.C. lines to be altered to MC + MC units, and
the proposal now awaits Commission approval.
(b) Submission of Schemes
Statement showing position, as at 18th November, of schemes
still to be submitted (attached as appendix "B") was
considered. Mr.Gould said that the previous forecasts of completion
of submissions had been over-optimistic, particularly in regard to the
progress through the Costs Office, but arrangements were being made to
overcome any difficulty. Reference was made to the inclusion in the
statement of time required by Regional Accountant for financial assessment,
and Mr.Gould and Mr.Horner would jointly consider this.
