§ Mr. Walderasked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware that motor vehicle owners whose vehicles are used during a breakdown of public transport facilities for other than normal purposes may incur liabilities for which they may not be insured; and whether 88W he proposes any action to safeguard their position.
§ Mr. MarplesAppropriate arrangements exist. These have been agreed with motor insurers, for whose co-operation I am very grateful. They would entail the acceptance of some additional risks by insurers and of others by the Government. Advice will be given to vehicle owners should circumstances require.
