§ 57. Mr. Pageasked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation at what places the Highway Code is on sale; whether he is satisfied with the distribution of it to those places, and with the exhibition of it for sale at bookstalls, &c.; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. NugentThe Highway Code is on sale at H.M. Stationery Office bookshops and at many other bookshops throughout the country. H.M. Stationery Office holds ample stocks of the Code, and supplies may be purchased wholesale by any bookseller. This is the normal arrangement for Government publications and seems to me satisfactory. The extent of the Code's display on bookstalls is a matter for the retailer concerned; whilst I am grateful for what is being done, naturally I always hope for more.
