Commander Maitlandasked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation if he is aware of the congestion on the lists of those awaiting driving tests in Skegness and Lincoln; if he is also aware of the strain and extra burden placed on the agricultural industry and other industries because of this congestion; and what action he proposes to remedy this state of affairs.
§ Mr. Boyd-CarpenterI am aware of, and regret, the inconvenience of the long waiting period for driving tests in these places. I am confident that the recruitment of additional driving examiners now proceeding will alleviate the position.
