HC Deb 20 March 1911 vol 23 c184W
Sir CHARLES HENRY

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he will take steps, by legislation or otherwise, to divert the fines imposed upon motorists for exceeding the speed limits to the Treasury and allocate them to the funds of the Road Boad, instead of being applied, as at present, to the benefit of those districts whose magisterial benches impose the fines?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

I will draw the attention of the Chancellor of the Exchequer to the suggestion of my hon. Friend.
