HC Deb 20 November 1972 vol 846 c303W
Mr. McCrindle

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many garages have had their licence to carry out Ministry of Transport tests revoked in the past year; and how many applications for such licences have been refused.

Mr. Peyton

In the year ending 30th September, 1972, 341 authorisations to test were withdrawn. The number of applications has been relatively small since my announcement in September, 1971, of an embargo on new authorisations.
