§ 20. Mr. Blakerasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what progress has been made in the development 1248 for use by the police of a method of monitoring the speeds of vehicles by radar which provides a visual record.
§ Mr. SharplesProposals by interested firms for the development of a new vehicle speed meter are under consideration.
§ Mr. BlakerIs my hon. Friend aware that I was told in February that the Home Office was working on a development of a device for this purpose? Is that the same device to which he has just referred, and can he tell the House when he expects to have practical results?
§ Mr. SharplesThere are a number of different suggestions in this field. I cannot say at this stage when we expect to have the results. The technical problems are very real.
