HC Deb 25 March 1969 vol 780 c242W
77. Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he is aware of the growing number of vehicles left on the roads in the Metropolitan Police area to become derelict and of the danger that these vehicles become to human life; and whether he will take steps to provide that the police and local authorities should deal with these vehicles as dangerous litter.

Mr. Skeffington

The police and London borough councils and county district councils in the Metropolitan Police area already have powers to remove abandoned motor vehicles.
