is designed to establish if "further private-sector involvement will deliver better value for money, improve customer services, ligh ten the regulatory burden and deliver wider government objectives".
Vosa insists it is not planning to outsource enforcement, though a spokeswoman says: "We're looking at the potential to oulsource support to enforcement."
Areas under consideration for privatisation include LEW and PCV testing — informal talks will begin shortly with the industry's trade associations.
The Freight Transport Association's chief economist, Simon Chapman, says it would be keen to take over some of Vosa's current functions, most notably training.
