It is not my view; it is the view of the report I read. There is no satisfaction that adequate testing of compliance is in place at present. The West Link is probably a good sample because thousands of cars from throughout the country use it every day. Certain areas of the country have different attitudes and different enforcement regimes where one may have more ability to escape being seen and the system may not be up to scratch. This seems to be the view of the Comptroller and Auditor General and I would like to put this out there. If we are making changes, we must be able to measure whether the change is effective. This is my point.
