WRITTEN QUESTION No. 1771/98 by Roger BARTON to the Commission. Belgian ban on three-wheeled uncovered motor vehicles using motorways and main roads
Official Journal C 386 , 11/12/1998 P. 0158
WRITTEN QUESTION E-1771/98 by Roger Barton (PSE) to the Commission (5 June 1998) Subject: Belgian ban on three-wheeled uncovered motor vehicles using motorways and main roads The Belgian authorities have introduced a ban on three-wheeled uncovered motor vehicles using motorways and main roads, despite the fact that such vehicles are subject to single-market specifications and agreements. Given that three-wheelers are often used by riders with disabilities, and having regard to the principle of free movement, have the Belgian authorities informed the Commission of the reasons, rationale and justification for introducing such a ban? Answer given by Mr Kinnock on behalf of the Commission (10 July 1998) The Commission has asked the Member State concerned for information regarding the facts raised to by the Honourable Member. It will inform him of its findings.
