Camberwell Company (meaning the London, Camberwell,
and Dulwich Tramways Company), may make and carry
into effect agreements and arrangements in respect of the
following purposes on such terms and conditions as they
may think fit, i.e.
"The granting or making by the Camberwell Company
and the accepting by the Company of a lease for any term
of years, or a sale or transfer to the Company of the undertaking
of the Camberwell Company, or any tramways or
tramway, or portion of tramway, or tramway houses,
buildings, or works forming part thereof, and all and any
of their respective rights, powers, privileges, or authorities
connected therewith."
The consideration for such sale or lease may be by
yearly or other payment.
The sanction of the Shareholders to be given to agreements
under Act, the Board of Trade to approve.
The usual power for the London County Council to
lease or work is given.
We do not see any objection to the Bill, but we believe
it will be a public and local advantage.
The following suggestions made by the Surveyor in the
Report already referred to:—
(i.) In cases where the roadways are narrow, the
entire width of the roadway should be paved
by the Tramway Company.
