§ Mr. Spearingasked the Secretary of State for Transport what directives or requests he has made to the London London Regional Transport in respect of import of vehicles for its services and those of its contractors.
§ Mr. David MitchellLike other nationalised industries, London Regional Transport is expected to follow the Government's purchasing policy, which encourages them to buy British goods provided that the products and prices are right. It is up to the management of LRT to apply these principles to individual purchasing decisions but I am pleased to say that the vast majority of LRT's vehicles are British-made.
