I beg to ask leave to present a Petition on behalf of a large number of persons in the East Midlands traffic area against the nationalisation of the road transport industry. The Petition has been signed by more than 40,000 persons, and the prayer of the Petition is as follows: We, your petitioners, humbly pray your honourable House to reject any proposals which may hereafter be submitted to Parliament for approval or for legislation with the object of replacing private enterprise in the provision of road transport by a nationalised or Government-controlled system of transport, and your petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pray.

To lie upon the Table.
