§ Mr. Onslowasked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will list the members of his advisory committee on road lighting standards, together with their qualifications.
§ Mr. HoramMy right hon. Friend does not have an advisory committee on roads. The road lighting designs adopted by the Department are generally those set out in British Standards and Codes of Pratice and Officials of the Department represent its interests on the relevant committees of the British Standards Institution.
The Department consults with industry and other users and considers it has the right to modify Standards if the need arises and especially where the applicable British Standard is out of date.
