HC Deb 01 March 1948 vol 448 cc4-5W
Mr. A. Lewis

asked the Minister of Transport if he intends to prosecute Turners Transport, of Wilmington, Kent, for consistently infringing the 1930 Road Traffic Act, by compelling their road transport drivers to work longer hours than the law permits.

Mr. Barnes

The licensing authorities for goods vehicles for the Metropolitan and South Eastern Traffic Areas are making inquiries into the allegations which have been made, and it will be for them to decide what action to take when these inquiries are completed.
