HC Deb 28 March 1927 vol 204 cc875-6W
Mr. NAYLOR

asked the Minister of Transport if he will consider the desirability of publishing the Report on street accidents prepared by the London Traffic Advisory Committee?

Colonel ASHLEY

I have already authorised the publication of the Report referred to by the hon. Member, and I hope that copies will be available in the course of a few days.

Mr. R. MORRISON

asked the Home Secretary whether he is aware of the dangerous speed frequently used by motorists in Risley Avenue, Tottenham, where there are many dangerous cross turnings and a large school; and will he approach the police with a view to greater supervision along this road?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

During the past 12 months only four accidents, one unfortunately fatal, have been reported. The fatal accident was due to a child running suddenly into the road, and the driver of the vehicle was exonerated. The police have made special arrangements for the safety of children entering or leaving the school, and will continue to give all the supervision in their power.
