asked the Minister of Transport whether his attention has been called to the danger to school children living at Loughton, near Bletchley, Bucks, in having to cross Watling Street on their way to school; is he aware that the Loughton Parish Council have been trying without success to get a speed limit for motors imposed for the cross-roads at Loughton; and will he take steps to safeguard these children by imposing a speed limit for motors over these dangerous cross-roads?

My attention has not previously been directed to this matter, nor has any application for a speed limit at these cross-roads been received in my Department. Any application in this case would have to be made through the county council.
