§ Mr. Russellasked the Minister of Transport what progress has been made with the Road Goods Transport Survey being undertaken by his Department; and when it will be published.
§ Mr. MarplesThe Road Goods Transport Survey which is now being taken by my Department covers four separate weeks in the period April, 1962 to January, 1963. The last week's returns will not be received until the end of January, 1963 and the full results of the whole survey will take some time to compile. It is hoped that a full report will be published towards the end of next year. In the meantime some provisional results, based on the returns for the first week only, are being pre- pared and it is hoped to make these public by the end of this year.
