§ Mr. Marlowasked the Minister of Transport what is the extent of lighting schemes which have been established since May 1979 under previous criteria which would not now be established under existing criteria; what is the running cost; and whether he will make savings by leaving these lights unused in future.
§ Mr. Kenneth ClarkeNone. since Ministers took power under the 1966 Local Government Act to light trunk roads, the criteria for such provision have remained materially unaltered. We are about to review them in the tight of representations from my hon. Friend and others.
