§ 72. Mr. R. MORRISONasked the Home Secretary whether, in all cases reported to his Department of London omnibuses 37 found operating upon unscheduled routes and where the facts are not in dispute, prosecutions under the London Traffic Act have been initiated by his Department?
Mr. LOCKER-LAMPSONProceedings have been instituted by the police in all cases of omnibuses being operated on routes for which they were not scheduled, except in two cases, which were both of a purely technical character and the available evidence was not deemed sufficient to support a prosecution.
§ Mr. MORRISONIs the hon. Member aware that there is a considerable amount of feeling over these prosecutions, and that the suggestion is made that it is always the small omnibus proprietors that are prosecuted and never the London General Omnibus Company?
