HC Deb 26 May 1972 vol 837 c511W
Mr. John Page

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will amend the relevant regulations to enable purchasers of second-hand cars to arrange for them to be given a Ministry of Transport test, at their own expense, when so desired.

Mr. Peyton

Existing regulations enable this to be done for cars registered for over three years. Private arrangements may, of course, always be made for other vehicles.
