Major GREAMEasked the Home Secretary whether his attention has been drawn to the danger both to pedestrians and to vehicular traffic caused by the present position of the refuges in Parliament Street and Whitehall; whether the risk has been increased by the fact that the refuges do not correspond with the position of the Cenotaph; and whether he will take steps to secure that the refuges are placed centrally?
§ Mr. SHORTTThe answer to the first two paragraphs of the question is in the affirmative. With regard to the third, the Commissioner of Police is in communication with the local authority, and I understand that the matter is engaging the attention of the London Traffic Advisory Committee.
