HC Deb 03 June 1981 vol 5 c345W
Mr. Campbell-Savours

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether information required for the purposes of personal licensing of citizens band radio equipment can include details of the equipment manufacturers' serial number.

Mr. Raison

Recording each individual piece of equipment and keeping track of changes of ownership would make unacceptable demands on staff and resources. The CB licence will therefore only require the holder to use equipment which conforms with the appropriate Home Office Specification.

Mr. Campbell-Savours

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether the Government propose to license approved importers of citizens band radio equipment.

Mr. Raison

No.
