§ Mr. O'HaraTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport whether he will consider further action to tackle unroadworthy vehicles.
§ Mr. ChopeThe Road Traffic Act 1991 extended the power of the police to prohibit dangerously defective vehicles and it provided for all classes of motor vehicle to be prohibited. The Act also strengthened the law about the sale of unroadworthy vehicles. If a dealer is offering an unroadworthy vehicle for sale, he will have to make that clear to prospective purchasers.
