Edwardsasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of War Transport whether he has considered the ever-increasing rate of road accidents; and whether, in view of the likelihood of a more intensive road traffic after the end of the war in Europe, he will devise measures to reduce this heavy toll of life.
§ Mr. Noel-BakerYes, Sir. The Committee on Road Safety are hoping shortly to submit an interim Report to my Noble Friend on the measures which they consider necessary to deal with the grave problem of accidents on the roads in the specially dangerous period which will follow the end of the European war.
