§ 30. Sir JOHN WARDLAW-MILNEasked the Minister of Transport whether, 1062 in view of the representations made to him from motor-omnibus companies operating throughout the country protesting against the charges which they are bound to make under the Road Traffic Act, 1930, in connection with the recovery of property left in their vehicles, he will say what steps he proposes to take to alter the present arrangement?
§ Lieut.-Colonel HEADLAMMy hon. Friend has already decided to amend the Regulations governing this matter, and to provide for a considerable reduction in the charges to be made in respect of articles of small value. The proposals have been circulated to the various bodies and associations concerned, for their final comments.
§ Sir J. WARDLAW-MILNEDoes that mean that there will not be a continuance of the practice of charging according to the value of the articles left?
§ Lieut.-Colonel HEADLAMI take it that that will be the result.
