HC Deb 02 May 1907 vol 173 cc1038-9
MR. CLAUDE HAY (Shoreditch, Hoxton)

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he is aware that drivers of motor omnibuses in London frequently, without reasonable cause, refuse to stop or even slacken speed for intending passengers; and whether he will cause the police to communicate with the owners to ensure that the convenience of the public may be properly considered in this respect.

(Answered by Mr. Secretary Gladstone.) Complaints of this nature have been made to the Commissioner of Police, and he has already called the attention of the omnibus companies to the inconvenience caused to the public. I believe that improvement has resulted.
