HC Deb 06 November 1946 vol 428 c285W
Sir W. Smithers

asked the Minister of Transport whether, in view of the fact that some of the lorries which are now being sold at Ministry of Supply disposal sales are slightly over the legal width, he will alter the Regulations so that these lorries can be made available for use.

Mr. Barnes

Vehicles from the Services may have a variety of features making them unsuitable and illegal for civilian use. I am not prepared to amend the Regulations to allow greater width for vehicles in general operation.
