§ Sir C. Rawsonasked the Minister of Transport whether, in view of the present practice of allowing residential roads to be used by public service vehicles without any notice to those concerned prior to the granting of the licence by the Traffic Commissioners, he will issue a regulation making it obligatory on local authorities to cause notice to be published of all proposals for the use of any additional roads by public service vehicles, as provided under Part 4, Section 90, Sub-section (4), of the Road Traffic Act, 1930, so that persons affected may lodge an objection if they so desire?
§ Mr. BurginThe Sub-section mentioned by my hon. Friend refers to orders made by local authorities and has no reference to the grant of licences by the Traffic Commissioners. Parliament has given me no power to make the regulation which I understand my hon. Friend to desire.
