HC Deb 30 April 1980 vol 983 cc576-7W
Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will declare 27 October National Disc Day, and recommend to all local education authorities that they should advise schools to encourage children to wear reflector discs on the day when the clocks go back.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

I support the efforts of RoSPA and theSunday Mirror to encourage the use of reflective discs and I hope that the proposed " Glowworm Day" on 27 October will be a success. Children and indeed anyone walking at night are well advised to wear or carry something reflective.
