	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/11/2019 answer text <p>The police have powers under the Road Traffic Act 1988 and Police Reform Act 2002 to seize vehicles being driven illegally without a valid driving licence or insurance or in an anti-social manner. Decisions on when to use these powers are operational matters for individual Police and Crime Commissioners and Chief Constables in conjunction with local policing plans. They are best placed to understand how to meet the needs of local communities and I welcome the work Hampshire Constabulary are doing to tackle the illegal use of motorcycles under Operation Torque.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 05/11/2019 14:44:25 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse
