§ Lord Burghleyasked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that police in the Metropolitan area have instructions to insist that motor cars at night, although mechanically disabled, even to the extent of complete removal of engine, must still have their doors locked; and whether he will see that more sensible Regulations are enforced?
§ Sir J. AndersonThe object of these Regulations is to delay an invading enemy, and that justifies any practical measure which is likely to multiply delays. This is the reason for the double precaution to which my hon. Friend refers, and I do not think it imposes any undue inconvenience on the owners of motor vehicles.
