HC Deb 03 April 1950 vol 473 cc97-8W
53. Mr. J. Hynd

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what progress has been made by the Inland Transport Committee of E.C.E. in the revision of Conventions governing European road and rail traffic.

Mr. Ernest Davies

Existing Conventions governing European Road Traffic have been brought up to date by the Road Traffic Convention and Protocol on Road Signs and Signals of 1949. The main preparatory work for these was done by the Committee. The Berne Conventions which govern rail traffic are being revised by the Office of the Berne Union and not by this Committee.
