§ Mr. Bishopasked the Minister of Transport if she is aware of the concern arising from possible failure of certain insurance companies to meet their obligations under the Road Traffic Acts; what action she proposes to take to protect the public; and if she will make a statement.
§ Mr. JayI have been asked to reply.
I am aware of the concern to which my hon. Friend refers. The Insurance Companies Act, 1958, confers certain powers on the Board of Trade with regard to the solvency of insurance companies. If my hon. Friend has any information about particular insurance companies and would send it to me, I would gladly consider it.
