HC Deb 25 February 1981 vol 999 c404W
Mr. John Grant

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what steps he will now take to deal with abuses of the scheme allowing disabled drivers to display special discs.

M. Kenneth Clarke

Following wide consultation with interested organisations I recently discussed with members of the all-party disablement group a number of possible measures designed to improve the orange badge scheme and to cut down abuse. We hope to announce our conclusions on possible changes in the scheme soon.
