§ Mr. WheelerTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport how many persons are employed at the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Centre and at what annual cost; how many requests are received per annum as to details of the registered number of a vehicle; and in what period of time the average response for this information is made.
§ Mr. Peter Bottomley[pursuant to his reply, 8 July 1988, c. 805]: I regret to say that my previous answer contained an error. The total number of inquiries of the vehicle record received by DVLC in 1987 was 7.4 million, not 4.7 million.
