EDM number 2152 in 2008-09, proposed by Lindsay Hoyle on 26/10/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Roads.

That this House notes that the UK has failed to sign EU Directive 92/97/EEC which ensures that type approval of replacement exhaust systems are produced and sold as separate technical units; believes that as a consequence of non-type approved replacement products being installed on motor vehicles UK businesses are being placed at a disadvantage and that economic, environmental and public health damage has resulted; and urges the Government to sign EU Directive 92/97/EEC to ensure that a level playing field operates across Europe, and that all replacement exhaust systems are type approved.

This motion has been signed by a total of 28 MPs.
