HC Deb 13 March 1967 vol 743 cc12-3W
Rear-Admiral Morgan Giles

asked the Minister of Transport whether she is aware of the urgent need for extensions of speed limits in Fair Oak, Hampshire, especially in view of the building of new schools; and when she expects to be able to give her decision on this matter.

Mr. John Morris

We are not aware of changes in the situation since an application by the Hampshire County Council for an extension of the speed limit was rejected in August, 1965.

The conditions then prevailing indicated that the extension was not justified.

I understand the county council may be considering a fresh application. If this is made, my right hon. Friend will, of course, consider it carefully in the light of any new conditions.
