HC Deb 17 July 1929 vol 230 cc467-8W
Colonel HOWARD-BURY

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will obtain a copy of the Safety Responsibility Bill which is being put forward in the United States as a satisfactory alternative to third-party insurance, as it provides for permanent suspension of the driving licence of any motorist against whom a judgment as to payment of damages to a third party has been delivered and who fails to comply with it; and whether he will consider the introduction of similar legislation in this country?

Mr. HERBERT MORRISON

I am obliged to the hon. Member for drawing my attention to this Bill. I will examine its provisions.
