§ Lord Brougham and Vauxasked Her Majesty's Government:
What action can be taken after 1992 to encourage high standards of motorcycle helmet protection if, following harmonisation, our national mandatory British Standard is lost to a less stringent European standard.
§ Viscount DavidsonThe action most in the interest of motorcyclists everywhere is to ensure there will be no reduction after 1992 in the level of protection offered by the helmets on sale. That is what we are seeking to secure in our negotiations.
