Baroness Thomas of Winchester – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Transport

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Baroness Thomas of Winchester on 2014-06-26.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what plans they have for identifying Class 3 Mobility Scooters, which currently have to display a nil value disc, once the paper Vehicle Access Duty tax disc is abolished from 1 October.

Baroness Kramer

The vehicle tax disc is not used to identify Class 3 mobility vehicles. These vehicles are indentified according to their construction, weight and speed and are required to be registered with the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency. The abolition of the tax disc in October should not affect the current identification of these vehicles.
