HC Deb 22 November 1967 vol 754 cc341-2W
47. Mr. Roebuck

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will take steps to secure a reduction by motor insurance companies in premiums, in the light of the regulations regarding drinking and driving in the Road Safety Act, 1967.

Mr. Darling

It is too early to judge the effect of the Act on claims under motor insurance policies. When the effect can be judged, it would be for consideration, in the light of experience of the cost of claims and of other relevant factors, whether premiums should be reduced.
