HC Deb 17 July 1929 vol 230 c432
70. Sir W. BRASS

asked the Minister of Transport whether, in order to relieve the ever-growing traffic congestion in the narrow London streets, he will consider adopting the Paris method of stationing motor vehicles, where the stationing is only permitted on one side of the street instead of on both sides as in London, the side permitted alternating with the odd or even day of the month?

Mr. HERBERT MORRISON

My Department has collected certain data relating to this method of traffic operation, and I am placing these before the London Traffic Advisory Committee with a view to obtaining their views and advice.

Sir F. HALL

In the event of the Advisory Committee reporting favourably, will the hon. Member carry it out?

Mr. MORRISON

It does not follow.

Mr. SPEAKER

That is a hypothetical question.
