HC Deb 01 April 1993 vol 222 c383W
Mr. Nicholas Winterton

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what percentage of motor vehicles purchased by the police, by the fire service and by the civil defence authorities were built or assembled in Britain.

Mr. Charles Wardle

The vehicles for these services are all purchased locally. The Home Office does not keep records of the numbers, make, models or country of origin of vehicles purchased by these forces and could obtain such information only at disproportionate cost.
