Yes, 2 years on an 5 off would be a good age rule (for saloons at least), but I fear that the LC's deregulatory remit will mean that whatever's decided it won't be anything like as onerous as that.
Indeed given that their remit also has a 'local decision making' approach as well then they could well just leave that with local councils, so no change there then.
