Miss Rathboneasked the Secretary of State for War to what authority persons should apply if they wish to travel to a destination in the neighbourhood of the newly restricted coastline and wish to find out whether their destination is included in the areas mentioned but unspecified in the published instruction, which are restricted though over 10 miles from the coastline.
§ Sir J. GriggThe person intending to travel should inquire of the person to be visited whether the latter resides in one of the boroughs or urban or rural districts included in a Protected Area. The list of these has been published and will be displayed at police stations and certain railway stations.
Miss Rathboneasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether the new restrictions affecting entry to certain coastal districts in Great Britain will prevent persons not exempted from these restrictions from travelling to places outside the restricted areas if it is necessary to descend at a railway station within the restricted area and to proceed immediately to the destination by taxicab or privately owned vehicle because no public service vehicle is available.
§ Sir J. GriggI have been asked to reply. Descent at a railway station inside a Protected Area to proceed by public or private vehicle to any destination is not permitted by the Protected Area Orders for persons not entitled to enter those areas. They should reach destinations outside those areas by descending at stations outside them, even though they may not be the most convenient.
