HC Deb 28 February 1895 vol 31 c18
MR. T. LOUGH (Islington, W.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he has considered the Report of the Committee on the Cab Service of the Metropolis; and whether he is prepared to take steps to carry out the administrative and legislative changes recommended; and, if so, when the former will come into operation?

MR. ASQUITH

I am in communication with the Commissioner of Police on the subject of the administrative changes. He has the matter under immediate consideration, but has not as yet been able to furnish his report. I hope in the course of the Session to introduce a Bill to deal with the practice known as "bilking."
