799. MINUTES OF MEETING OF AUGUST 10th, 1960
Agreed.
800. GENERAL MATTERS OF POLICY
1. Position of Schemes still to be
submitted
The Chairman stressed the necessity for the submission of further
proposals for the introduction of diesel multiple units, particularly in
respect of Manchester Schemes Parts 4, 5, and 6. It was noted that the
re-appraisal of the financial results of these schemes was proceeding. Mr.
Roberts stated that apart from the volume of work involved no special
difficulty was being experienced except for the assessment of receipts from
Parcels etc. traffic attributable to the schemes. Departmental meetings
had been held in an effort to establish a satisfactory method of assessing
these receipts, and a memorandum was being prepared setting out in full the
difficulties experienced.
The Chairman said it was necessary for information in respect of
parcels receipts to be included in future proposals and it was agreed that the
memorandum be circulated for discussion at the next meeting. In the
meantime, preparation of all necessary particulars for the proposals, other
than parcels, should proceed without delay.
It was noted that investigation into the remainder of proposals
still to be submitted was proceeding satisfactorily and Mr. Reynolds requested
that special attention be given to the St.Pancras, Leicester, Nottingham
scheme.
With regard to the Broad Street - Tring scheme, Mr. Stanley stated
that information in respect of dual electric stock would be furnished
shortly.
