§ 56. Sir Walter Smilesasked the Minister of Transport what facilities exist for the testing of applicants for driving licences between 5 p.m. and 10 p.m. on weekdays?
§ Mr. BurginIf any applicant for a driving licence can show that he is unable to attend for examination during normal working hours, that is, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., arrangements are always made for testing outside those hours.
§ Sir W. SmilesHas the applicant to pay any extra fee for this privilege?
§ Mr. BurginI have not that information handy, but I do not think so. I should like the House to understand that I do not encourage people to learn to drive at twilight.
§ Sir W. SmilesIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that a great number of people work very hard between 9 o'clock in the morning and 5 in the evening, and cannot attend any other time?
