HC Deb 19 June 2002 vol 387 c426W
Mr. Martlew

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport when the Government will comply with the EU directive on end of life vehicles. [62036]

Mr. Wilson

I have been asked to reply.

The Government will transpose the directive once it has decided upon the method of implementation that best suits the UK. Consultations with industry and other interested parties continue, to ensure that all the implications of this complex measure are properly understood. No other member state has yet transposed the directive into national law.
