House of Lords written question – answered at on 22 July 2002.
asked Her Majesty's Government:
How quickly and by what means United Kingdom enforcement authorities can determine whether a vehicle, ostensibly registered in another European Union state, is in fact legally registered in that state.
Foreign registered vehicles engaged in international haulage in the UK are required by EC Regulation 881/92 to carry a certified copy of a Community authorisation. The authorisation is evidence that the vehicles comply with the domestic operator licensing system of the member state in which they are based, including the requirements for registering the vehicle.
