HC Deb 22 March 1939 vol 345 c1272
33. Captain Strickland

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he is yet in a position to make a statement as to when it is proposed to issue in Palestine the new Road Transport Ordinance and Highway Code for that country?

Mr. M. MacDonald

I am afraid that it is not possible to say when the Palestine Government will be in a position to enact legislation amending the Road Transport Ordinance or to issue the projected Highway Code. Further consideration of these matters has had to be deferred until normal conditions are restored in Palestine.
