Proceeding contribution from Earl Attlee (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 27 June 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Road Safety Bill [HL].


Road Safety Bill [HL]

I have a slight anxiety; if the Minister would prefer to write to me, I would I understand. Goods vehicles have to go to goods vehicles testing stations for their annual tests. Sometimes they are detected to have serious faults that mean that they cannot go on the road. They should not be presented like that, but the fact is that they are. It is fair enough to prohibit them, but would VOSA issue fixed penalty notices as a result of an annual test?
