§ 49. Mr. HIGHAMasked the Prime Minister if he will consider the advisability of placing Government lorries on the streets of London, operated by members of the Vehicle Workers' Union, in order that the present overcrowding of omnibuses and tramcars may be to some extent remedied, and in particular to avoid another death being caused through this overcrowding if the present congestion of London traffic is not immediately dealt with?
§ Sir A. GEDDESI have been asked to reply. The possibility of using lorries is being examined this week. I have called a conference for to-morrow to see whether arrangements can be made to give effect to this suggestion.
