THE committee representing manu1 facturcrs and transport users, headed by Sir Leonard Browett, director of the National Union of Manufacturers, are hoping to meet the Minister of Transport again shortly to discuss the 20 m.p.h. speed limit. The Minister agreed to receive the committee on Monday, after Sir Leonard had told him of the dissatisfaction created by his recent Parliamentary statement, but this appointment had to be cancelled.
The committee were to have asked the Minister to fix a definite future date for the abolition of the restriction. In the interim, employers and employees would be able to agree upon revised operating schedules and financial benefits.
