HC Deb 17 May 1976 vol 911 c411W
Mr. Roper

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether EEC Directive 71/127/EEC on driving mirrors for motor vehicles is yet applicable in the United Kingdom; or, if not, when it will become applicable.

Dr. Gilbert

I am about to issue for consultation a draft amendment to Construction and Use Regulations which would apply the main provisions of this directive to vehicles registered in Great Britain. I understand that similar steps are being taken in Northern Ireland.

Mr. Roper

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what EEC legislation other than Directive 71/127/EEC affecting driving mirrors for motor vehicles is in force or under consideration.

Dr. Gilbert

None.
