Mr. Keeling
asked the Home Secretary how many prosecutions and convictions there have been in the Metropolitan Police District for exceeding the 20-mile speed limit in the black-out since it was imposed on 1st February?
Sir J. Anderson
The figures for March are not yet available. During the month of February 55 summonses for this offence were disposed of by courts in the Metropolitan Police District. In 51 cases the defendant was convicted, and in one case the charge was found proved but was dismissed under the Probation of Offenders Act.
