HC Deb 28 June 1966 vol 730 cc252-3W
Mr. Ron Lewis

asked the Minister of Transport if, in the interests of road safety, she will make an order making it compulsory for all vehicles to be sheeted down when carrying loads.

Mr. Swingler

The provisions of Regulation 73 of the Motor Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations relating to safe loading should be adequate. But my right hon. Friend is asking her Working Party on the Construction and Use Regulations to see if it is necessary to strengthen this Regulation.
