MOTOR TRANSPORT SERVICES
NEW CONTROL SCHEME FOR BRITAIN PROPOSALS OF ROYAL COMMISSION (British Official Wireless,) (Rec. October 31, 5.5 p.m.) Rugby, October 30. Proposals for the creation of an entirely new scheme for control of motor transport services are submitted in the second report by the Royal Commission on Transport. The Commission suggests that Britain be divided into 14 areas, in which there would be .raffle authorities of three commissioners. It would be their duty to control the licensing of public service vehicles and co-ordinate passengercarrying services. In carrying out their licensing duties the commissioners, it is proposed, would have regard to the elimination of unnecessary services, the provision of services on unremunerative routes, and the supervision of timetables and fares.
