Tachographs Mr. Lawrence asked the Minister of Transport if he will take steps to allow the calibration and sealing of tachographs to be undertaken in the workshops of major fleet operators. Mr. Fowler I have a duty to ensure, so far as I can, that approved tachograph services are available to every operator, large and small, who needs them under the EEC Regulations. I cannot agree to approve tachograph facilities in private workshops which might prejudice the commercial viability of the publicly available facilities on which the small operator will be entirely dependent. But a fleet operator is free to apply for approval as a public tachograph centre, providing services on a commercial basis to all comers.
