§ Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Minister of Transport whether she is aware of the growing practice of dual and in some 186W instances treble parking of vehicles in narrow streets and roads, thus impeding the free flow of traffic; and whether she will seek to provide that only single-line parking is to be allowed on any public highway with a width of 15 feet or less.
§ Mr. SwinglerThe control of double or treble banking of parked vehicles is a matter for which local authorities, and the police already have powers; we are not at present satisfied that there would be any advantage from trying to formulate general Regulations which cannot take account of local conditions.
