§ Mr. Watkinsasked the Minister of Transport whether he will indicate the total cost of snow clearing in each of the counties of Wales and Monmouthshire for the winter of 1962–63 for Trunk, Class I, Class II, Class III and Unclassified roads, respectively; and when he will make a statement on the extra grants to be allowed for this expenditure.
§ Mr. MarplesI have asked the county councils to let me know how much abnormal expenditure they incurred on maintenance of trunk and classified roads last winter. I have not yet had all the replies and I understand that it will be some weeks before I can expect to do so.
