§ 24. Mr. Goldingasked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will establish a committee of inquiry into ways of ensuring that cars are insured.
§ Mr. PeytonNo, Sir.
§ Mr. GoldingIs the Minister aware that the temptation to evade insurance has greatly increased with the rapidly rising cost of premiums? Will he take all steps to ensure that evasion does not arise?
§ Mr. PeytonYes. This is primarily a matter for the police. I believe we have the best means possible of ensuring that people comply with the law. I personally have the gravest doubts whether a proliferation of committees of inquiry would help with this or other problems.
