• The Department of Transport has confirmed that all petrolengined vehicles manufactured in the UK from July 1992, or sold after January 1993, will have to be fitted with catalytic converters.
From July 1992 the emission limits on petrol engined vehicles, introduced into the MOT test on 1 November, will be tightened further in line with EC directives.
No limits have yet been pub
fished and it is not known which gases will be regulated, so the 18,000 MOT test stations and other workshops will have problems when specifying equipment.
The Dip's plans were contained in a letter to Robert Bosch on the eve of the joint Bosch-Motor Trader exhaust emission seminars.
The final two seminars are scheduled for 10 June in Glasgow and 11 June in Edinburgh.
