HC Deb 14 June 1904 vol 136 cc21-2
DR. MACNAMARA

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether, in view of the clause introduced at the instance of his Department into the London County Council (Tramways and Improvements) Bill, empowering the stopping of trams in the Westminster Bridge Road at York Road instead of at the Westminster Bridge terminus, he will consider the desirableness of requiring the halfpenny buses which run across the Westminster Bridge to start from York Road instead of as at present from the Westminster Bridge terminus.

٭ THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. AKERS-DOUGLAS,) Kent, St. Augustine's

I am not in a position at the present time to make any statement on the subject, but I may assure the hon. Member that when the arrangements under the new clause are being settled, care will be taken to consult the public safety and convenience as fully as possible.
