However, not all offences are individually reported within the centrally held data. Data for offences of failing to use form V5C/3 to notify the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency of the transfer of a vehicle to a new owner are held as part of a related group of vehicle licensing offences, and it is not possible to separately identify prosecutions for this specific offence from other offences within this grouping. This information may be held by the individual courts in England and Wales and as such it can only be obtained at disproportionate cost.</p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning question first answered 26/11/2014 09:10:59 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning
