HC Deb 13 March 1930 vol 236 c1528W
Major GLYN

asked the Home Secretary what is the total number of taximeter-cabs licensed in the Metropolitan police area; and how many of these are of British construction?

Mr. CLYNES

The total number of taxicabs licensed on 28th February, 1930, was 7,983. With regard to the latter part of the question, as I have explained to the hon. and gallant Member in reply to previous questions, this information is not recorded and could only be made available at very considerable expenditure of time and labour.
