HC Deb 15 May 1963 vol 677 c149W
16. Mr. Holt

asked the Minister of Transport when a full report on road transport will be published, in order to provide the necessary information on which an overall transport plan for the country can be determined.

Mr. Marples

In pursuing their aim of providing an efficient and well-balanced transport system for Great Britain as a whole, the Government have already published, or have been associated with, a number of important studies and reports which affect road transport. I am sending the hon. Member a list. As I announced on 29th April, I am setting up an independent committee of inquiry to re-examine the fundamental basis and working of the licensing system for road goods transport.
