§ 14. Captain BRASSasked the Home Secretary the number of licences to drive motor vehicles issued during the year 1924?
§ The MINISTER of TRANSPORT (Colonel Ashley)I have been asked to reply. The numbers of driving licences issued during 1924 were approximately as follow:
| England and Wales | 1,499,000 |
| Scotland | 151,000 |
| 1,650,000 |
§ Captain BRASSWill the right hon. Gentleman consider the advisability of instituting a test before licences are issued?
§ Colonel ASHLEYI do not think that that arises out of the question.
