§ Mr. Patrick Maitlandasked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation whether he is now satisfied that all possible precautions have been taken to prevent a recurrence of accidents on the Carlisle-Stirling trunk road outside Burn-wood Camp, Carlisle, and in particular whether the cause of the repeated deterioration of the road surface has now been traced.
§ Mr. WatkinsonIt is proving more difficult than was at first expected to find the exact cause of the foundation troubles experienced at this site and investigations are still continuing. In the meantime the road surface has been repaired and will be kept under special observation until the source of the trouble can be traced and remedied permanently.
