HC Deb 02 July 1948 vol 452 c248W
Mr. Janner

asked the Minister of Transport what is the present position with regard to legislation to authorise the construction of motorways in this country; and whether he is yet in a position to make a statement as to the probable date of its introduction.

Mr. Barnes

I cannot at present say when it will be possible to introduce legislation to authorise the construction of motorways.
