HC Deb 13 November 1980 vol 992 c454W
Mr. Wrigglesworth

asked the Minister of Transport if he will reconsider his decision to transfer heavy goods vehicle test stations to the private sector, in the light of representations by the co-operative movement and others.

Mr. Fowler

No. I have considered all the representation made to me, but I believe that the private sector will be able to provide as fair a system as the public sector and one better suited to the needs of the road transport industries.
