§ Mr. Granvilleasked the Minister of Transport if he is aware that the 25 miles limit imposed upon small hauliers in Suffolk is creating severe hardship and conditions of unfair competition; and if he will consider amending the present regulations.
§ Mr. BarnesThe 25-mile limit was imposed by Section 52 of the Transport Act, 1947, and applies to the whole country. It was fully considered when the Transport Bill was before Parliament and I see no reason for amending legislation.
