§ Mr. Dempseyasked the Minister of Transport if, in view of a recent decision in the Scottish courts, he will amend Section 232 of the Road Traffic Act, 1960, so as to enable any police officer to ask an owner of a motor vehicle the name of the person driving it at any material time, without the necessity of having written authority from the chief officer of the police; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. MarplesI am considering the implications of the recent decision to which the hon. Member refers.
