HC Deb 08 July 1946 vol 425 cc2-3
1. Mr. William Shepherd

asked the Minister of Transport if he will arrange for uniformity of speed limits in all London parks, based upon the limits which obtain in the Royal parks.

The Minister of Transport (Mr. Barnes)

I have no jurisdiction over speed limits in London parks or the Royal parks. These are matters for the London County Council and my right hon. Friend the Minister of Works respectively.

Mr. Shepherd

Can the right hon. Gentleman do something to equalise the speed limit of 12 miles per hour, which is not enforceable at the present time?

Mr. Barnes

I will certainly draw the hon. Member's observation to the notice of the authorities concerned.
