HC Deb 16 December 1969 vol 793 c289W
104. Mr. Waddington

asked the Minister of Transport if he will introduce legislation to make mandatory the present discretionary powers at present possessed by local authorities under Section 75 of the Road Traffic Act, 1960; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Bob Brown

We are encouraging local authorities to engage in a full range of road safety activities, but do not at present propose to introduce fresh legislation. We are, however, keeping the matter under review.
