A meeting of motorists and local body representatives today discussed tho Government’s proposals regarding the Main Highways Funds, and carried a resolution protesting against the withholding of the annual grant of £200,000 from the Public Works Fund and £ 35,000 from the Consolidated Fund, as being opposed to the spirit and intention of the Main Highways Act, and the agreement between the motorists and the Government.
