HC Deb 18 December 1957 vol 580 cc64-5W
51. Mr. Lewis

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation whether he is aware that as recently as 28th August, 1957, the French Government introduced an official decree that the minimum age for drivers of mopeds would be 14 years; and whether he will see that a similar arrangement is made in this country.

Mr. Nugent

I have nothing to add to the reply which I gave on the 4th December to two Questions on this subject by the hon. Member.

67. Mr. Swingler

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation if he has considered the Report of the Committee on Road Safety on the age for motorcyclists; and what action he proposes to take.

Mr. Nugent

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given to my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for Croydon, North-East (Vice-Admiral Hughes Hallett) on 18th November.
