HC Deb 15 May 1973 vol 856 c294W
Mr. Haselhurst

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will now introduce measures to make the sheeting of lorries mandatory; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Peyton

No. The Code of Practice on Safety of Loads on Vehicles which I issued last year advises when sheeting and other methods of securing loads are appropriate.
