HC Deb 03 July 1930 vol 240 cc2132-3
78. Sir JOSEPH LAMB

asked the Minister of Transport whether he has obtained a report from the London Traffic Advisory Committee upon the introduction of trackless trolleys into the London traffic area; and, if not, whether he will obtain such a report and circulate it so that, if possible, it may be available before the London United Tramways Bill is submitted for Second Reading?

The MINISTER of TRANSPORT (Mr. Herbert Morrison)

The London United Tramways Bill, in so far as it proposes the introduction of trackless trolley vehicles in the London traffic area, has been considered by the London Traffic Advisory Committee, from whom I have obtained a report. It is not the practice to publish reports made to me by the Advisory Committee on Private Bills, but, after considering the Committee's observations, I prepared a report for the Committees of both Houses dealing with this Bill.

Sir J. LAMB

When will that report be available?

Mr. MORRISON

The report is now before the other House, and it will no doubt come before this House when the Bill is before it. If the hon. Member would like a copy of it, I shall be happy to send him one at once.

Sir J. LAMB

Thank you.
