asked the Minister of Transport what was the number of mopeds licensed in this country at the lastest convenient date; and what was the corresponding figure one and two years previously, respectively.

In the quarter ended 30th September, 1959 there were 347,307 motor cycles currently licensed of a cylinder capacity not over 50 c.c. The majority of these are mopeds. In the corresponding period of 1958, there were 272,795. There are no comparable figures for 1957.
