HC Deb 12 February 1964 vol 689 c80W
107. Mr. Grimond

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department why traffic wardens in the Metropolitan Police district carry out their duties in pairs.

Mr. Brooke

Traffic wardens in the Metropolitan Police district usually work singly, except when recruits are under training, but as they work in two shifts with a period of overlap during the middle of the day there are then commonly two wardens to a beat.
