HC Deb 18 January 1993 vol 217 cc69-70W
Mr. William O'Brien

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport how many vehicles and what types have been prohibited after a roadside test in each of the last two years.

The 1992–93 target for cars and light goods vehicles was exceptionally high because of the additional work monitoring and change in testing regime for vehicles between 3,000 and 3,500 kg. So the inspectorate is planning only 55,972 checks in 1993–94. Further information on 1992–93 can be found in the inspectorate's business plan.
