Vehicle Registration Document

HC Deb 26 January 1977 vol 924 c607W

Mr. Ted Fletcher

asked the Secretary of State for Transport in view of the fact that the Darlington owner of the vehicle SYT 699M first applied for a vehicle registration document in July 1976 after numerous inquiries failed to obtain the document, and, after an assurance had been given to the hon. Member for Darlington on 22nd December 1976 that the matter would be given immediate attention and in a further letter on 14th January 1977 that it was hoped to resolve the matter quickly, he has still not received his registration document what steps he proposes to take to resolve this long delay in the issue of documents by the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Centre, Swansea.

Mr. Horam

None. The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Centre kept its promise to send a registration document to the owner of the car as soon as possible. They have also written to my hon. Friend explaining why the document could not be issued sooner.
