HC Deb 02 May 1949 vol 464 cc637-8
40. Mr. Skeffington

asked the Minister of Transport whether in view of the fact that grants to local authorities for road safety campaigns have been considerably less than the approved estimates, permission will be given for the balance to be spent on actual road safety improvements, such as the provision of refuges.

Mr. Barnes

As these grants are made under Section 115 of the Road Traffic Act, 1930, they cannot be utilised for other purposes.
