Vehicle Number Plates: Fraud
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she plans to review the penalties for driving with a non-compliant or ghost number plate.
Answered by Sarah Jones
Cloned and misrepresented plates are a serious problem which cause distress to innocent people and provide cover for criminals.
The Home Office and the Department for Transport are working closely with the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA), the National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC), Trading Standards and local authorities to improve the identification and enforcement of number plate crime.
