Dr. Tony Wright: To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions (1) which MOT testing stations are on
a final warning from the Vehicle Inspectorate; [103128]
(2) which garages have lost their licence to carry out MOT tests in each of the past five years. [103129]
Mr. Hill: A warning is issued to Authorised Examiners for shortcomings in the testing requirements, but the standard of testing
remains acceptable within the scheme. It would be inappropriate, therefore, to release details of warnings issued. When an
Authorised Examiner is withdrawn from the MOT testing scheme, they are required to remove all signs and documentation connected with
the MOT scheme which gives a clear indication that the garage is not authorised to carry out MOT tests. Authorised Examiners cannot
normally reapply for authorisation within a period of five years. To publish the identities of Authorised Examiners withdrawn from
the scheme could be prejudicial to any of their other business interests unconnected with the MOT testing scheme and therefore a
list of those withdrawn from the scheme is not published. There are about 18,500 private garages authorised as MOT testing stations.
The number of Authorised Examiners withdrawn from the scheme in each of the past five years and the number of warnings issued in the
same period are shown in the table.
