HC Deb 14 April 1954 vol 526 cc120-1W
Sir A. Bossom

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether his attention has been called to errors in the Return of Offences relating to Motor Vehicles for 1952; and whether he will make a statement.

Sir D. Maxwell Fyfe

I must apologise for two mistakes in this Return which was presented to the House in July, 1953.

The figures relating to disqualification from driving and the endorsement of driving licences in the County of Cornwall were omitted from Table III. The entries for Cornwall in columns 16 and 17 of page 35 of the Return should be 167 disqualifications and 580 endorsements. The number of disqualifications shown in the same table for the County of Salop should read 167 and not 207. The totals for columns 16 and 17 on page 39 should, therefore, be 16,278 and 105,280 and the grand totals for columns 16 and 17 on page 41 should be 17,282 and 110,789.

I am arranging for an amendment slip to be issued.
