To ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will make it his policy to introduce a more flexible policy on road signs for tourist sites and other tourist attractions; and if he will make a statement.

Signs to tourist destinations are traffic signs which are prescribed by regulations subject to confirmation by Parliament.
