HC Deb 13 May 1963 vol 677 cc131-2W
Mr. Clive Bossom

asked the Minister of Transport what advice he has circulated to highway authorities about the provision of sanitary facilities in lay-bys on trunk roads in order to provide for the needs of the general public.

Mr. Marples

None. Such provision is not within the powers of highway authorities, nor is it their responsibility, but that of the local public health authorities. I am sure that the latter are aware of the needs of the general public in this respect.
