§ Mr. Richard Wainwrightasked the Minister of Transport in what place will the heavy goods testing station be established nearest to Holmfirth, Slaithwaite and Skelmanthorpe; and what consultations his Department has held in the Huddersfield district on the location of this testing station.
§ Mr. MarshThe nearest goods vehicle testing stations to Holmfirth, Slaithwaite and Skelmanthorpe will be at Rothwell (Leeds), Heywood and Bredbury (Manchester). Consultations on the location of testing stations were with representatives of the operators' associations. My Department is considering, in consultation with these associations, whether testing facilities could be provided economically in Huddersfield to replace arrangements proposed earlier which were abortive.
