asked the Minister of Transport when was the form number VTG 1 (2), application for a first examination of a motor vehicle, first printed.
In March of this year.
asked the Minister of Transport if he is aware that there is waste in the use of the application form number VTG 1 (2) caused by firms using excess supplies of these large forms for the wrapping of their goods; and if he will introduce a smaller-sized form.
I am not aware of any misuse and perhaps the hon. Member will let me have particulars.
This is Part II of the application form for first examination of a motor vehicle under the Goods Vehicle Plating and Testing scheme. Copies have been distributed to vehicle operators for use for voluntary testing and pre-registration of vehicles pending the start of the scheme on 1st October. The form has had to be revised because of the delay in the start of the scheme which I announced on 18th April, but it would be impracticable to reduce its size.
