§ 47. Mr. Stoddartasked the Secretary of State for Transport what representations he has received concerning exemptions from the tachograph regulations.
§ Mr. FowlerThe road transport industry has generally accepted the tachograph. I have received representations from owners of vehicles outside the mainstream of the industry concerning exemptions, but, as my hon. and learned Friend the Under-Secretary of State told the hon. Member on 29 April [Vol. 3, c. 415.], the United Kingdom has already taken advantage of all exemptions permitted by the Community regulations. We shall, however, continue to explore the scope for further exemptions.
