HC Deb 26 February 1982 vol 18 c511W
Mr. Iain Mills

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what is his policy towards the findings of the Southampton university report on spray suppression on heavy goods vehicles; and whether he plans to take any steps in this regard.

Mr. David Howell

The work of Southampton university has been very valuable in identifying the effective uses of antispray devices. I am looking urgently at how this basic research can be translated into a techical standard which could form the basis of regulations.
