§ 60. Mr. Jannerasked the Minister of Transport how far his records of road accidents show the number of children killed when playing in the roads outside their homes.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydI regret that the records in my Department do not show the number of children killed while playing in the road outside their homes. I am sorry to say, however, that 1,429 accidents to children occurred in 1952 while they were "playing in the road" and I earnestly hope that parents and4W others having charge of children will do their utmost wherever possible to see that they play in safer places.
