HC Deb 21 February 1929 vol 225 cc1276-7
14. Sir HARRY BRITTAIN

asked the Home Secretary whether his attention has been called to the absence of vestibule fronts to London County Council tramcars; and whether any objections have been advanced by the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police to the drivers being enclosed?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

No application has been made by the London County Council to the Commissioner to approve the fitting of vestibule fronts to London County Council tramcars but the general question is under the Com- missioner's consideration and tests are being made with a partial vestibule front and weather screen. The safety of the public must however be the first consideration.
