HC Deb 17 February 1932 vol 261 c1639
51. Earl CASTLE STEWART (for Mr. EVERARD)

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will consider reducing the grants from the Road Fund to those local authorities who use foreign road-stone?

Mr. PYBUS

As I have already explained both inside and outside this House I deplore the use of foreign road-stone by highway authorities. My hon. Friend's point is, I think, met by a condition attached to all grants from the Road Fund towards the cost of works, of which I am sending him a copy.
