§ 44. Sir W. Wakefieldasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will give details of the penalties inflicted in the case of all convictions of street traders during the past six months for infringement of price control Acts and Regulations in Oxford Street, London
§ Mr. Thornton-KemsleyWill the Home Secretary consult with his colleague the President of the Board of Trade to see whether something cannot be done to stop the nylon "spivs" in Oxford Street, who break every regulation with complete impunity?
§ Sir W. WakefieldIs the Home Secretary aware that, apart from breaking trade regulations, they are also causing a lot of obstruction in that busy street; and might not policemen be used to prosecute them and to keep the way clear instead of watching cars in other places?
