411. MARPLES has received a set-back al in his Plans to stop parked vehicles causing obstruction in London streets.
He told M.P.s last week that consultations with local authorities and other organizations had disclosed "objections of substance" to regulations of the kind he had proposed applying in the London Traffic Area.
In consultation with the Home Secre ta-y and the Commissioner of Police he was exploring other means of dealing with the problem both in London and el sewhere.
" I understand that in London the police have in the meantime arranged to test in selected areas the effectiveness of a more vigorous policy of prosecution of this type of offence under the general law of obstruction ", added Mr. Marples.
