§ Mr. LANSBURYasked the Home Secretary if he is aware that motor splash-guards have been fitted to the near side wheels of the Metropolitan Steam Omnibus Company, Limited, plying between Hammersmith and Piccadilly, and that the same kind of guards are fitted to the motor services at Kingston-upon-Hull and Widnes; and whether the Commissioner of Police for London, when licensing motor - omnibuses, will insist that such splash-guards shall be fixed?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLI am aware that the company named had a special kind of mudguard on some of their omnibuses, but they have now removed it. As I told the hon. Member a few days ago, none of the mudguards submitted to the Commissioner of Police so far have proved satisfactory. I have no information as to whether this mudguard is in use in the provinces.
