answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/06/2019 answer text <p>The Ministry of Defence (MOD) routinely scraps used tyres through a contractor, therefore none are exported overseas. However, when tyres are attached to heavy goods vehicles, it is possible that those over 10 years old could be exported, as all ex-MOD vehicles are sold as seen. There is currently no loss of income associated with such vehicle sales.</p> answering member printed Earl Howe grouped question UIN HL16131 question first answered 13/06/2019 13:30:04 answering member 2000 label Biography information for Earl Howe
