HC Deb 03 March 2003 vol 400 c788W
Mr. Don Foster

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport (1) what(a) guidance has been issued and (b) requests have been made by the Department to the DVLA with regard to congestion charging over the last 12 months; [99875]

(2) what discussions he and his Department have had with the DVLA regarding congestion charging in London in the last year; and if he will make a statement. [99767]

Mr. Jamieson

DVLA has worked closely with Transport for London to develop the systems needed to meet the legal obligation to supply information from its records to support congestion charging. My Department has asked DVLA for regular reports on progress throughout last year to ensure that the Agency meets its obligations.
