HC Deb 13 December 1972 vol 848 cc152-3W
Mr. William Wilson

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will introduce legislation specifying standards of normal use for all new and remould car tyres and requiring the manufacturers of such tyres to make such products accordingly.

Mr. Peyton

I am considering requirements for marking tyres with speed and load capacities.

Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether, in the interests of road safety, he will seek powers either to prevent the sale or to have clearly marked the remould quality tyres which are now being sold.

Mr. Peyton

I understand such tyres are already clearly marked.
