Proceeding contribution from Lord Hanningfield (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 26 October 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Road Safety Bill [HL].

Road Safety Bill [HL]

I thank the Minister for that answer. Perhaps he could comment further. The issue we are worried about is change of address. As I said, it could lead to people not letting the authorities know when they move. Surely the organisation should look at the matter in terms of efficiency? I hear what the Minister says about consultation, and that it might not happen. One is accustomed to being told that, and yet eventually these things happen. There could be charges for things like change of address. I would like the Minister to expand on why the organisation could not recover some of these costs through efficiency, and the Government’s attitude towards charging for some of these things.
