HC Deb 27 June 1949 vol 466 cc62-3W
101. Mr. Renton

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will vary Regulation 5 (a) of the Goods Vehicles (Permits) Regulations, 1949, by providing that the time during which an application for an original permit may be made, shall be extended to a period of three months from 1st July, 1949, instead of the period of one month prescribed by the Order.

Mr. Barnes

No. Special steps have been taken through the Press, the B.B.C., and the trade associations to bring the effect of these regulations to the notice of hauliers, and I propose to take similar steps to remind them during July.
