§ 52. Mr. Doddsasked the Minister of Transport what consideration is being given to the need for business premises and shops in busy thoroughfares to display prominently the number so as to reduce the hazards of those in vehicles searching for a particular number which often is not given in any form.
§ Mr. MarplesI have no formal responsibility for street numbering, but I would welcome the clearer display of street numbers. I shall shortly be consulting local authority associations about reissuing a circular of guidance on street name plates and I will take the opportunity of consulting them about street numbers.
