HC Deb 30 April 1951 vol 487 cc107-8W
Sir H. Roper

asked the Minister of Transport when he proposes to introduce legislation with a view to conferring general powers for the erection of shelters on the highway.

Mr. Barnes

I have consulted the bodies concerned as to proposals which might be laid before Parliament on this subject when opportunity offers. Their replies indicate a considerable devergence of view on important points and I cannot say when legislation on the matter is likely to be introduced.
