Malcolm Harbour Interview 22nd November 2011
An interview with Malcolm Harbour UK MEP and Chairman of the IMCO Committee held last year on the 22nd November 2011. The IMCO committee was in charge of the regulation proposal for the European Parliament.
The interview took place the same day that a group of riders protested in Brussels. While the protest was taking place, Right To Ride’s Elaine Hardy met Mr Harbour and a representative of the European Commission to discuss the proposal.
“Claims that a new EU law will “suppress” the freedom of motorbike riders is “complete nonsense”, says a senior Conservative MEP. Malcolm Harbour chairs the committee in the European Parliament which has been examining plans for a new EU law to deal with motorbike safety.
Some two hundred bikers, mainly from the UK, have been protesting in Brussels. They claim that the plans would stop bikers being able to modify and improve their bikes, ruining their hobby and mode of transport.
But Conservative, Malcolm Harbour, says politicians have listened to bikers view and the new law will make bikes better and safer.”
