HC Deb 29 July 1935 vol 304 cc2303-4
65. Mr. MABANE

asked the Minister of Transport whether he has any further information to give the House about the revision of the original demarcation by local authorities of restricted areas and areas free from restriction?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the MINISTRY of TRANSPORT (Captain Austin Hudson)

My hon. Friend is no doubt aware of the reply which my right hon. Friend gave on this subject to the hon. and gallant Member for Clitheroe (Sir W. Brass). I can only add that the work of making further adjustments as the situation may require is being urged forward as rapidly as possible.

Mr. MABANE

Is the Parliamentary Secretary aware of the growing indignation at the tardiness with which the local authorities are backing up the efforts of the Ministry of Transport in this matter?

Captain HUDSON

I think my right hon. Friend answered a question on that point last week.
