set under way a study of the longterm technological possibilities and requirements of land transport. He did not believe that a study in these broad and general terms would produce useful results, he commented.
The idea had been raised in the Commons by Dr. Jeremy Bray (Labour, Middlesbrough West), who wanted the study to be undertaken jointly by the Secretaries for Industry and Trade and Education and Science. Dr. Bray said that a number of possibilities in new systems of land transport did not seem to have been considered in any recent Government report and no existing Department was properly equipped to evaluate them as a whole. He mentioned the tracked hovercraft system and the monorail.
