HC Deb 07 April 1976 vol 909 c173W
Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what advice he gives to testers as to the steps they should lake where owners of dangerous vehicles which have failed the test insist on driving them away.

Dr. Gilbert

When a vehicle fails a test, the defects are notified to the owner on form VT21. I propose to strengthen this procedure by beginning the issue of a written warning notice if, in the view of the tester, the vehicle is dangerously unroadworthy.
