HC Deb 30 June 1927 vol 208 c543
53. Mr. R. MORRISON

asked the Minister of Transport whether any changes have taken place in the membership of the Roads Advisory Committee during the past 12 months?

The MINISTER of TRANSPORT (Colonel Ashley)

The answer is in the negative.

54. Mr. R. MORRISON

asked the Minister of Transport how many meetings of the Roads Advisory Committee have been held during the past 12 months, and the number of members present at each meeting?

Colonel ASHLEY

Two meetings have been held during the past 12 months, i.e., on 29th November, 1926, and 31st March, 1927. At the first of these meetings six members were present, and at the second eight.

Mr. MORRISON

May I take it from that answer that as a rule this Committee meets twice a year?

Colonel ASHLEY

Oh, no, the hon. Member must not assume that; he must only assume that during the last 12 months they met twice.
