§ Mr. CLYNESI have already publicly drawn general attention to the matter.
§ Lieut. - Commander KENWORTHYIs my right hon. Friend satisfied as to the result of his remonstrances, and is he aware that recently boys have been sent to prison for riding bicycles without lamps and offences of that kind?
§ Mr. CLYNESIt is only within the past few weeks that I have twice referred to this matter, and, of course, as yet, there has been no time to see the results.
