§ Mr. Tony Banksasked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will make it his policy to make available transport supplementary grants to London boroughs requesting it for the purpose of altering London lorry ban road signs following his exempting of 65 miles of trunk roads from the ban; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Peter BottomleyIt is open to highway authorities to bid for support of the capital costs of such signing in their transport policies and programme submissions. They can then use the block of minor works expenditure that we accept each year for this purpose.
