HC Deb 06 December 1960 vol 631 c138W
Mr. Graham Page

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether it is intended to use traffic wardens on traffic control duties, in particular to assist pedestrians in crossing the road at dangerous points; and whether any such wardens have been or are being trained for such duties.

Mr. R. A. Butler

Under the Functions of Traffic Wardens Order, 1960, traffic wardens may be employed to enforce certain provisions of the law relating to stationary vehicles and, in certain circumstances, to act as school crossing patrols or as parking meter attendants. It is too early to consider any extension to their duties.
