HC Deb 20 March 1935 vol 299 cc1207-8W
Colonel CLIFTON BROWN

asked the Minister of Transport whether he has considered the petition from the tradesmen of Hexham regarding one-way traffic in Fore Street; and what action he proposes to take in the matter?

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

Yes, Sir. Before I made the Order dealing with this matter in October last, I informed the Northumberland County Council that I regarded it to a certain extent as experimental, and that I should require a report on its working at the expiration of six months from the date of its coming into operation. I shall then review the whole matter and, if necessary, hold a further inquiry.
