HC Deb 09 December 1969 vol 793 c61W
80. Mr. Longden

asked the Minister of Transport if he will arrange for quarterly car licences to be printed on different coloured paper from annual licences.

Mr. Bob Brown

This would not help enforcement, since vehicle licences are not now issued for fixed annual or quarterly periods. No reason is seen for changing the present system of indicating by colour the calendar year in which the licence expires.
