HC Deb 05 February 1913 vol 47 c2208
78. Captain MURRAY

asked the President of the Local Government Board whether he can state the progress that has been made in his investigations into the subject of the excessive use, especially during the hours commonly devoted to sleep, of warning instruments on motor vehicles; and whether he is yet in a position to hold out hopes of remedial legislation?

Mr. HERBERT LEWIS

As my hon. Friend is aware, the matter is one of considerable difficulty, and I regret that I am not yet in a position to hold out hopes of early legislation.
