§ Sir R. Russellasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he is aware that children attending Buxlow Preparatory School, Wembley, and other schools near by have difficulty in crossing Castleton Avenue when going to school in the morning; and if he will arrange for a police officer to supervise this junction for a short time in the morning when the peak-hours traffic travelling along East Lane, and also that crossing it, coincides with the arrival of the school children.
§ Mr. Roy JenkinsA survey carried out by the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis, who is the school crossing authority for the Metropolitan Police 15W District, shows that the volume of traffic in Castleton Avenue at school assembly times is not sufficient to justify police supervision at its junction with East Lane. I understand that children crossing Castleton Avenue to Buxlow Preparatory School are well supervised by a teacher.
