HC Deb 18 January 1982 vol 16 c28W
Dr. Alan Glyn

asked the Secretary of State for Transport whether he is satisfied that adequate resources are devoted to the supervision of heavy lorries as regards their condition and adherence to existing regulations.

Mr. David Howell

In general yes, but ways of making more effective use of available resources are constantly under review. Tighter and more clearly defined regulations, as contained in current Government proposals for heavy lorries, would of course further increase the effectiveness of supervision and enforcement.
