HC Deb 01 November 1956 vol 558 c182W
Major Beamish

asked the Minister of Health the estimated annual cost of repairing the modern single-seater motor invalid tricycle ; and what is the estimated annual cost of repairing a two-seater motor invalid tricycle during the life of these vehicles.

Mr. Turton

This matter has been reexamined recently. Assuming an annual mileage of 5,000, the average annual cost over a period of years of repairing a modern single-seater invalid tricycle is estimated to be £30. Whilst there is no experience of the cost of repairing a two-seater invalid tricycle, on the same basis it would appear to be about £55 a year.
