HC Deb 17 July 1929 vol 230 c459W
Mr. NAYLOR

asked the Lord Privy Seal whether, as part of his general plans for relieving unemployment, he will consider the desirability of bringing pressure to bear on the responsible local authorities throughout the country to construct kerbed footways for pedestrians on all roads used by vehicular traffic?

Mr. HERBERT MORRISON

I have been asked to reply. The officers of my Department encourage the provision of footways, kerbed where necessary, in all cases where such provision is desirable and practicable. Grants are made in the ordinary course towards the cost of such work.
