HC Deb 18 November 1991 vol 199 c11W
Mr. Speller

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport how many representations he has received about the regulation allowing three children below the age of 14 years to occupy a two-seater bench in a school bus; and if he will revoke this regulation.

Mr. Chope

In the last 12 months we have received about 30 representations about the concession which allows three seated children under the age of 14 to count as two passengers.

There are no plans to change the regulations at present.
