Vehicle Number Plates: Fraud
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment her Department has made of trends in the misuse of number plates to evade enforcement.
Answered by Lilian Greenwood
The Department for Transport does not hold the information requested. On-road enforcement of number plate offences is a matter for the police.
The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency is working with the National Police Chiefs’ Council and others to improve the identification and enforcement of number plate crime, including the use of cloned and ghost number plates.
