HC Deb 27 January 1966 vol 723 c101W
77. Mr. Costain

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will call for reports from chief constables on the steps which have been taken to check the number of unlicensed vehicles on the roads in Kent, and on the number of successful prosecutions instigated for this offence.

Mr. George Thomas

I am informed by the Chief Constable of Kent that during 1965 the police reported 4,351 cases of apparently unlicensed vehicles on public roads to the Kent County Council. Proceedings were instituted in 2,447 cases, but I regret that I have no information as to the number which resulted in a conviction.
