HC Deb 21 December 1966 vol 738 c334W
90. Mrs. Joyce Butler

asked the Minister of Transport what examination she made during her recent visit to the United States of America of the silent, fumeless motor-cycle being developed there; and what proposals she has for encouraging its development in this country.

Mrs. Castle

I did not examine such a development while in America. Research and development on vehicles powered by electricity are going on in this country and my right hon. Friend the Minister of Technology is interested in the potential of an electric motor cycle which has been built here.
