There was a danger inherent in the use by public service vehicles of recut tyres, said Sir Geoffrey de Freitas (Labour, Kettering) in the Commons last week; he asked for an extension of the Regulation governing their use.
But Mr. Richard Marsh told him that he was aware of no evidence that the use of recut tyres on p.s.v. was a source of danger. These heavy-duty tyres, said the Minister, were manufactured with an additional depth of rubber to permit recutting and this process was normally carried out expertly and safely.
