§ MR. JACKS (Stirlingshire)I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade if his attention has been called to the inconvenience caused to the public by large advertisements being exhibited in railway stations; and if he will take steps to have the name of the station made more prominent than these advertisements?
§ MR. MUNDELLAEvery railway passenger must have felt the inconvenience to which my hon. Friend refers, although no general representation has been made to me on the subject. It is, however, one of the new requirements of the Board of Trade as regards new railways that names of stations are to be shown conspicuously on boards and on platform lamps, and recommendation to the same effect will be made to all railways on the next opportunity.
