HC Deb 30 November 1938 vol 342 c431W
Mr. Adamson

asked the Minister of Transport whether there has been any increase in the cost of administering the Road Traffic Acts; and, if so, for what reasons?

Mr. Burgin

Yes, Sir. Measures which have proved necessary to enforce the statutory and other conditions of carriers' licences have been the principal cause of the increase in the cost of administering the Road and Rail Traffic Act, and a further increase will result from the passage of the Road Haulage Wages Act.
