HC Deb 23 June 1994 vol 245 c306W
Mrs. Dunwoody

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will list by location the roadside checks carried out by the Vehicle Inspectorate in the last financial year and the number of vehicles checked; and if he will list the number of immediate prohibitions, delayed prohibitions and defect notices issued at each roadside check.

Mr. Key

The table gives a breakdown by region. It is not practical to give a breakdown by location.
