HC Deb 25 February 1981 vol 999 cc384-5W
26. Mr. Fox

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will consider further action in order to encourage car sharing schemes.

Mr. Fowler

The leaflets and posters we have issued have been widely welcomed and I am now building on this with a campaign of sponsored advertising in the national press and on local radio stations. This will be followed next month by a local campaign in two areas—Suffolk and South Lincolnshire—encouraging drivers to share their cars with neighbours who have no access to public transport.
