HC Deb 20 March 1989 vol 149 cc411-2W
Mrs. Dunwoody

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what assessment has been made of whether the level of policing on motorways is adequate to ensure compliance by heavy goods vehicles with road traffic regulations.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

It is a matter for individual chief officers of police to determine how to deploy their resources. I have no reason to believe that the level of policing on motorways is unsatisfactory.
