HC Deb 29 July 1936 vol 315 c1520
42. Sir A. KNOX

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware that for many months annoyance has been caused to residents at Hedgerley Corner, near Farnham Common, by the constant turning in a narrow country lane outside their houses of omnibuses and coaches from 6 a.m. to 1 a.m.; and, as both the county council and the London Passenger Trans port Board refuse to undertake the expense required to provide a proper turning place, will he send down an official from the Ministry to make inquiries on the spot and recommend a solution of the difficulty?

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

The matter is not within my jurisdiction.

Sir A. KNOX

What relief is there for these unfortunate people?

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

There is the Metropolitan Traffic Commissioner.

Sir A. KNOX

We have applied to everyone and cannot get any satisfaction.

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

I should say that the Traffic Commissioner does not agree with my hon. and gallant Friend. I am sorry, but the matter is not one for me.
