23. Mr. T. SMITH

asked the Home Secretary the number of convictions for failure to insure against third-party risk during 1934 and 1933?

Sir J. GILMOUR

The Return of Offences relating to motor vehicles which was presented to Parliament on 14th May last shows that during 1933 there were 12,486 convictions for failure to insure against third-party risks and that in a further 2,451 cases the court found the charge proved but disposed of it under the Probation of Offenders Act without proceeding to conviction. The corresponding figures for 1934, subject to final correction, are 13,642 and 2,451.
