Mr. Speller
asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will seek to allow insurance industrial branch agents to be exempt from the seat belt provisions of section 27 of the Transport Act 1981 when they are collecting cash door to door in built-up urban areas.
Mrs. Chalker
In response to my statement of proposals for implementing compulsion, I have received comments from three organisations representing insurance agents and I am carefully considering their views, along with others I have received, before laying the necessary regulations before Parliament for approval.
