HC Deb 22 April 1977 vol 930 c176W
Mr. Anthony Grant

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what is the average length of time taken by the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Centre, Swansea, to refund unexpired road tax between application for refund and actual payment; and what steps he is taking to speed up this process.

Mr. Horam

About 15–20 working days. I am currently considering what can be done to reduce this period without prejudicing the demands of public accountability.
