HC Deb 08 March 1972 vol 832 c332W
94. Mr. Edwin Wainwright

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what kind of licence is required and what training is needed, before a person is permitted to drive a heavy mobile crane on British roads.

Mr. Peyton

An ordinary licence and, unless the vehicle is in an exempt category, a heavy goods vehicle driver's licence. There are no prescribed training requirements.
