HC Deb 10 March 1993 vol 220 c566W
Mr. Hunter

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what is his policy on the introduction of probationary plates for young or inexperienced drivers.

Mr. Kenneth Carlisle

[holding answer 9 March 1993]: My right hon. Friend is considering various options for reducing the high accident rate associated with young drivers. Probationary plates are just one of many possibilities. We hope to issue a consultation paper shortly.
