HC Deb 02 June 1998 vol 313 c156W
Mr. Burns

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions if he will make a statement on the progress being made to move the Driving Test Centre in Beeches Road, Chelmsford, to an alternative site in the town; and if he expects the move to be completed prior to 31 December.

Ms Glenda Jackson

Planning approval has recently been granted for the building of a new driving test centre at the Chelmer Business Park. We are confident that we shall be able to switch driver testing to there and cease at the current premises in Beeches Road, by the end of this year.
