HC Deb 18 July 1979 vol 970 c755W
67. Mr. Wall

asked the Minister of Transport at what date tachographs will have to be installed in heavy goods vehicles.

Mr. Fowler

I am currently consulting both sides of the road transport industry on this question, and hope to make an announcement as soon as those consultations are complete.

Mr. Wall

asked the Minister of Transport whether he proposes to set up a network of calibration stations for tachographs.

Mr. Fowler

I envisage a rapid expansion of the present network of Government approved commercial tachograph centres and in particular, an improvement in the coverage of less densely populated areas.
