HC Deb 22 January 1976 vol 903 c534W
Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will seek to introduce tests for new vehicles before they are permitted to be used on the roads, in accordance with practice current in Sweden and other European countries.

Dr. Gilbert

I have already consulted interested parties about the introduction of type approval of new vehicles similar to the systems in force in most other European countries. I hope to be able to lay regulations before Parliament shortly.
