§ Major GLYNasked the Minister of Transport whether it is the intention of the Government to introduce legislation at an early date to give effect to the recommendations of the Royal Commission on transport in regard to road transport vehicles obaining a licence before carrying on the public highways, and also in regard to the suggested vehicles' duty and the regulation of wage rates and conditions of labour as affecting the drivers?
§ Mr. HERBERT MORRISONI assume that the hon. and gallant Member's question relates to the recommendations numbered LXV, LXVI and LXVII of the final report of the2490W Royal Commission on Transport. It is unlikely that an early opportunity will present itself of introducing legislation for the further regulation and control of vehicles engaged in the transport of goods by road, but full consideration will be given to those recommendations when the time comes for revising or extending the powers of the traffic commissioners recently appointed under the Road Traffic Act, 1930.
