HC Deb 01 December 1993 vol 233 cc537-8W
Mr. Redmond

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will require all heavy goods vehicles to display the name, address and telephone number of the user of the vehicle for each journey; and if he will apply the same requirements to hired vehicles.

Mr. Key

I do not propose to extend the requirements already laid down in the goods vehicle operator licensing provisions. These apply to users of heavy goods vehicles, including hired vehicles, over 3.5 tonnes and require that a vehicle specified on an operator licence display a disc showing the name of the licensed operator, a trading name if applicable, the registration number of the vehicle and the type of licence held by the operator.
