HC Deb 24 January 1979 vol 961 c144W
Mr. Evelyn King

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what estimate he has of the numbers of persons enrolled for Civil Defence or active in other voluntary organisations who are capable of driving a heavy goods vehicle.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

The Civil Defence Corps was disbanded in 1968. I have no information about the number of members of voluntary organisations qualified to drive heavy goods vehicles.
