HC Deb 22 March 1977 vol 928 cc525-6W
Mr. Buchanan-Smith

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what is the average time taken for the transfer of cherished registration numbers of road vehicles.

Mr. Horam

Reliable information relating to applications under the new arrangements is not yet available.

Mr. Buchanan-Smith

asked the Secretary of State for Transport how many applications he has had for the transfer of cherished registration numbers of road vehicles from the area of Angus District Council in the course of the past 12 months; what has been the average time taken for such transfers; how many applications are outstanding at the most recent convenient date; and for how long these outstanding applications have been outstanding.

Mr. Horam

I am afraid that records are not kept in such a way as to allow this information to be extracted. But the Dundee Local Vehicle Licensing Office has no backlog of applications.
