Mr. C. WASONasked the Secretary for Scotland if he has received representations as to the difficulties encountered by medical men in the Shetlands carrying out their duties owing to the new regulations for lighting recently issued by him; and if, in view of the improbability of a Zeppelin raid in that locality, he will take steps with a view to their modification?
Mr. MCKINNON WOODThe answer to the first part of the question is in the negative. I think my hon. Friend is under some misconception as to the nature of the restricting regulations, of which I will send him a copy. The limits of size and power for sidelights have been fixed so high as to allow a good driving light for doctors and other motorists who have to use country roads at night.
