§ Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if, in view of widespread non-application of the law against illegal parking of vehicles, particularly in the metropolis, he will issue a circular to all police authorities on the subject, and will seek to convene a conference at which both police authorities and local authorities would be represented to investigate how, in the interests of public safety, long-term illegal parking can be ended.
§ Mr. MayhewNo. The responsibility for the use of their resources and liaison with the local authorities rests with chief officers of police, who are well aware of current traffic problems.
