HC Deb 16 December 1959 vol 615 cc171-2W
100. Mr. A. B. C. Harrison

asked the Minister of Transport if he will introduce legislation to compel car dealers to provide a certificate of roadworthiness with each second-hand car sold.

Mr. Marples

I am not satisfied that such a requirement, which it would be extremely difficult to enforce at all comprehensively, would materially strengthen the safeguards in the existing law against the sale of defective motor vehicles.
