NCT safety concerns

Sir, – I cannot understand why there is a partial suspension of the NCT tests ("Part of NCT tests suspended over safety fears with lifts", News, January 30th). Surely the vehicle inspection lifts are inspected on a regular basis and certified as safe. Presumably any potential faults would have become apparent during the inspection and rectified as required. – Yours, etc,
