§ MR. H. BROADHURST (Leicester)I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board whether he will consider the advisability of enabling county councils to lake over the roads and footpaths of urban district councils in cases where both authorities are desirous this should be done; and whether he will bring in a Bill for that purpose?
§ THE PRESIDENT OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. HENRY CHAPLIN,) Lincolnshire, SleafordI do not myself contemplate bringing in a Bill for the purpose referred to, but there is a Bill now before the House dealing with a cognate matter, and when that Bill comes on for discussion, I shall be 262 very glad to consider this Question in connection with it.
