§ 35. Mr. HOLDSWORTHasked the Minister of Transport whether he will make a statement as to the complaints he has received in reference to regulations made under the Road and Rail Traffic Act, 1933; and whether he has at his disposal any machinery for ascertaining the views of those affected?
§ Mr. HORE-BELISHAThe regulations referred to in the question have been made in accordance with the procedure laid down in the Act of 1933. I am having them re-examined with a view to seeing whether, within the terms of the Act, I can meet the criticisms which have been made to me. I can assure the hon. Gentleman that I shall always be ready to take such a course.
§ Mr. HOLDSWORTHWould it not be a great advantage in dealing with all questions relating to road transport if the various interests concerned were so organised that they could present a complete policy to the Minister?
§ Mr. HORE-BELISHAIt would be a great advantage in many cases if a unified case could be put forward by the industry as a whole.
