§ 30. Mr. K. Robinsonasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he has received the Report of the Runciman 1445 Committee on the Economic Circumstances of the London Taxi-cab Service; and when he expects the Report to be published.
§ Mr. Boyd-CarpenterYes, Sir, very recently. No decision has yet been taken on publication.
§ Mr. RobinsonWill the hon. Gentleman do his best to hasten publication of this Report, which is anxiously awaited by the people in this service, which is at present in a serious plight?
§ Mr. Boyd-CarpenterI appreciate that there is a natural anxiety to have this Report available, but until it has been studied I obviously cannot say anything about publication.
