§ Mr. GrahamTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport how many talking pelican crossings for the blind have been installed in Britain; if he will name the local authorities where they exist; and how many more are planned.
§ Mr. Peter BottomleyMy right hon. Friend has not approved the installation of any crossings of this type, nor has he plans to approve any, in England.
We understand that one such crossing has been installed by Oxfordshire county council without approval.
Information about crossings in Wales and Scotland is a matter for my right hon. Friends the Secretaries of State for Wales and Scotland, respectively.
