"We are going to do so systematically, however Ihe t should be no need for a Minister to go scampering round the country ineeting deputations." , , . Countv councils would be asked to draw up lists of their reiiuirements in order of urgency, added Mr Semple, and the department would then be able to incorporate the suggested works .in its five-year programme of road improvements. The departmental officers would thus be able to work with a clear idea of what had to be done and with up-to-date macliini ery work would he speeded up and cost’s reduced.
