HC Deb 02 July 1931 vol 254 c1463
70. Mr. REMER

asked the Minister of Transport if it is his intention to make any regulations with reference to the size of headlights on motor vehicles?

Mr. PARKINSON

It is the intention of my right hon. Friend to make regulations which would prohibit the use of headlights of excessive power. The question of size is, I think, not a material factor.

Mr. REMER

Will the hon. Gentleman, before he actually makes these regulations, consult the French Government as to what they are doing in the matter with a view to adopting similar regulations here?

Mr. PARKINSON

In reply to a question yesterday, my right hon. Friend made it quite clear that he had full knowledge of the French experiments to which he has given consideration.
