HL Deb 23 June 1997 vol 580 c154WA
Lord Brougham and Vaux

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether, as the ISOFIX proposals for child restraint fitment to vehicles may offer improvements in safety over the current systems in use, they will press for the introduction of this sort of scheme on a world-wide basis.

Baroness Hayman

The department has actively supported the development of the ISOFIX child restraint attachment system. We will continue to promote the ISOFIX system and have offered to draft an amendment to ECE Regulation 44, the European standard for child restraints, so that it can incorporate the key features of the system.
