§ Mr. ROBINSONasked the President of the Board of Trade what special allowance of petrol is made to county surveyors, road surveyors, and chief constables of large counties whose duties entail the travelling of great distances; and if some extra allowance can be granted them out of the reserve held?
Mr. HARCOURTArrangements have been made under which chief constables will be allowed their full requirements of petrol up to thirty gallons a month, and in certain cases more than this amount. I regret that it has not been found practicable at present to make any special arrangements for county surveyors and road surveyors.
