§ MR. CLAUDE HAYI beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many railway stations within the metropolitan area have remained closed to cab drivers under the provisions of the London Cab and Stage Carriage Act, 1907.
§ MR. GLADSTONEOrders made under Section 2 of the London Cab and Stage Carriage Act, 1907, have exempted from the operation of that section all stations except the terminal stations of the various railway companies, and the London and South Western stations at Vauxhall and Clapham Junction. This is in accordance with the clear understanding arrived at when the Bill was before Parliament that suburban stations would not as a rule be dealt with under the section.
