HC Deb 18 July 1974 vol 877 c253W
Mr. Christopher Price

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment when he expects to complete his consultations about the exemption of drivers of preschool buses from heavy goods vehicle licences.

Mr. Mulley

Several organisations which I have consulted about my proposal to make amending regulations have raised points on the conditions subject to which the driving of play-buses would be exempted from the licensing requirements for drivers of heavy goods vehicles. These need further consideration, but it is still my hope that it will be possible to make amending regulations in the reasonably near future.
