HC Deb 19 April 1967 vol 745 cc586-7
56. Mr. Longden

asked the Minister of Transport what progress has been made by the working party which is looking into the problem of noise from motor vehicles.

Mr. John Morris

I would refer the hon. Member to the Answer given to the hon. Member for Northants, South (Mr. Arthur Jones) on 14th March.—[Vol. 743, c. 79.]

Mr. Longden

Is not this a case of another working party which is taking an unconscionable time? Should not the whole lot be called shirking parties?

Mr. Morris

I cannot accept any slur of that kind on my right hon. Friend's Department. I would say that the revised draft of the regulations has been prepared, and will be circulated to interested organisations for comment.

Forward to
