HC Deb 10 March 1965 vol 708 cc81-2W
51. Mr. Lubbock

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will introduce legislation to amend the law to prevent persons who return stolen vehicles without driving them being charged under the Road Traffic Act with using a vehicle on the road while under age and uninsured.

Mr. Tom Fraser

No. I am not satisfied the suggested amendment would be justified.

86. Rear-Admiral Morgan Giles

asked the Minister of Transport whether, in view of the considerably increased use of stolen vehicles by criminals in recent months, he will give further consideration to making compulsory the fitting of thief-proof locks or devices on all new motor vehicles.

Mr. Tom Fraser

I have no reason to depart from the Answer I gave to the hon. and gallant Member on 25th November.
