HC Deb 20 October 1975 vol 898 c32W
Mr. Rooker

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment why his Department has refused help to British Leyland, Ford and Chrysler in tracing 100,000 car owners who are driving on United Kingdom roads unknowingly with suspect brakes.

Dr. Gilbert

The Department has no record of having been asked for help. Had it been approached, the Department would have co-operated to the full, though without breaching confidence over the detailed vehicle keeper records for which it is responsible.
