HC Deb 20 February 1963 vol 672 c66W
83. Sir R. Robinson

asked the Minister of Transport what steps he is taking to collect statistics with regard to the use of safety belts in motor cars.

Mr. Marples

The form used by the police to report accidents to my Ministry is currently being reviewed and this is one of the items whose addition is being considered. Since July last year, questions on the fitting and use of safety belts have been included in a motoring survey conducted quarterly by the Central Office of Information on my behalf.
