From a letter to the Evening Standard from Jenny Jones AM :- "The Mayor of London should call for an investigation after it emerged that the Government failed to act on research as far back as 2009 suggesting that diesel car manufacturers were cheating the pollution tests. This failure is contributing to 9,500 premature deaths in London each year. Clearly we cannot trust the unreformed Vehicle Certification Agency with the task of testing all new diesel cars in real-life conditions. It failed to expose the VW "defeat devise" scandal in the first place and is still funded by manufacturers. |
