§ 73. Mr. Sorensenasked the Minister of Transport whether lie is aware that the Children's Safety Crusade, to which a subsidy was granted by the Government, has published a printed folder containing the statement that many laws and regulations involve unfair treatment to motorists; and whether he will represent o this society the undesirability of their issuing such propaganda?
§ Mr. BurginI have not seen the folder to which the hon. Member refers. The activities of the Crusade are not controlled by the Government, and pending fulfilment of the conditions antecedent to grant, no financial aid has been given.
§ Mr. SorensenIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that I sent him a copy of this folder last night? If when he receives it he discovers the definite statement that motorists are suffering harshly from existing laws, will he then take steps to bring the matter to the attention of the Safety Crusade, to which the Government grants £5,000 by way of subsidy?
§ Mr. BurginI think that the hon. Member must have confused the address. Nothing has reached me.
§ Mr. SorensenWill the right hon. Gentleman inquire among his colleagues to see whether they have taken it?
